How long does preparing to ship normally last? My original delivery date was December 1-8 but it has been preparing to ship since Saturday the 14th.
 
Is yours a stock mbp or upgraded ram? I ordered straight away with 16gb ram and still processing and says 26th November lol.
Stock. It's for simpler tasks and a replacement for a sold 12.9" iPad Pro. I use my Mac (40GB RAM) for most work.

I’ve got the same as some others with having Cleared Customs this morning with an End of Day delivery timeframe. Considering it’s 8AM EST here and I don’t have an update that it’s loaded on a truck I’m thinking sometime tomorrow.

Ok so two things could be happening here...

1. (Less likely) the scans are delayed and we will suddenly get a status update to "out for delivery" soon.

2. (More likely) our packages arrived at Louisville and were put in a warehouse for sorting and distribution today.

That would mean a Tuesday/Wednesday delivery is likely just as what the apple store ETA shows....

I haven't had an update to my tracking since the 14th.... No cleared customs, no arrived at Louisville.... Nothing....

My SG MBP 16/512 just shipped from Shanghai via UPS. Due to arrive on Nov 20 in Ontario, Canada. Ordered right after the event and originally due Nov 25-27, “preparing to ship” status lasted about 36 hours.

Does anyone else have their MacBook Air shipping via FedEx? I have a shipment notification but the package has been in Shanghai since yesterday morning with no movement. And why FedEx when everyone else is UPS? Odd. Shipping to Charlottesville, VA.

Does anyone who has FedEx as their shipper have any movement at all beyond Shanghai? Mine has been in the same place in China since Saturday. I suspect FedEx is definitely following Apple’s timeline of a Tuesday launch. Any ideas on why some people in the same area get one shipper the other another?

I don’t have a FedEx delivery but Apple probably had to divide shipments between the two carriers. Both carrier’s systems are at Max capacity due to COVID and many retailers partnered with multiple shippers to get all of their orders out.
 
Ordered mine within an hour of the keynote ending, MBP, 16GB, 1TB. Says it arrives between the 25th and 3rd. The pricing is with the 10% off for military veterans. Guessing it’s a little more delayed since I went for the 1TB instead of one of the stock models.
I ordered the same in Space Grey. I had ordered right away and had a Nov 17 - Nov 20 date. Then I called Apple on Veterans Day and asked for the discount to be applied, they said I had to cancel and reorder. When I did, I got dates of Dec 4 - Dec 11 and it still says "processing". :(

This is where I’m at. It’s not being delivered today. The soonest Apple wants these delivered is tomorrow, I think. I cleared customs on 11/15 but with no new scans I got no hope. UPS does this constantly... they say it’ll be here 2 days sooner while Apple says a day or two later and it usually comes right in the middle... so the 17th.

I’ll say it again... I’ll be SHOCKED if anyone gets their M1 machine today.

Mine showed preparing to ship from the day I placed the order which was the day of the event until this morning it showed as shipped. My Original Estimated Arrival Date was 11/24-11/27 but now it should be here on 11/20
 
Mine just shipped this morning! However, it says no scheduled delivery date available and apple says November 24. When should I expect it to get to Alaska and when should I expect to get it?
 
UPS My Choice tells me my Air is coming today but I doubt it since the last scan was Saturday when it left Alaska
 
Whoohoo it shipped! Scheduled for November 24th. Strange though that it’s shipped via FedEx.
