Go onto the apple website

Find the code underneath the status, this isn't in the email. Copy the code into TNT, removing the last 2 digits of the tracking number and select 'yes' for coming from abroad. Thats it!

I'm looking at the status on Apple.com and it says tracking numbers will be available later and just lists the 80 number and the web order number. Problem is there aren't any other numbers listed in order status.

My order does say merge in transit (GB) so from that all I can figure out is mine is being sent to the UK rather than Aneheim to he merged. Think I'll just call Apple and see if they can find anything about tracking numbers. Thanks for the help. Will keep an eye out for any other numbers appearing.

Aww, mine has been passed through transit point but not got the second one up yet saying received. Best not have been pinched by a consignment scanning bloke!

Assuming this hasn't happened I'm guessing we might get delivery on Wednesday, get flown over from Holland to the UK tomorrow and distributed to regional hubs then sent to our homes 3 weeks and a day since the keynote. I hope so!

^ possible...

I'm hopeful for friday for me as I'm in ROI, so it probably has to go to the UK first before forwarding onto Shannon or Cork for delivery.

I might be evil and say that probably every modern laptop this side of post-17" monsters would look thin in that picture :rolleyes:

Bad timing with the MBAs, China's got some hassle with the snow storms and Chinese New Year traffic going on at the same time. I'm a bit surprised they're being shipped as hassle free as they are now.

Any news on Scandinavian shipments?

I'm with you on this one. The only number on that page is the one that starts 80... There was a number on the page before I clicked track shipment but that started with 00 and however much I fiddled around dropping numbers I couldn't find it on the TNT website. Probably just me being thick!

You are the lucky guys like me, who may have ordered a small ad on like the Ethernet adapter, which made your order a custom config delivery, to be "merged in transit". This means a first shipment of your MBA to NL or UK together with many others. During this phase you won't get an individually assigned carrier and hence no Carrier Tracking Number. Only the Apple Delivery Reference Number starting with 80. You even won't see any updates on the Apple Shipment Status page during this phase.

When your MBA will be custom configured with your accessories in LN or UK, it will be handed over to the carrier and you will get an update together with the Carrier Tracking Number. :eek:

Arnhem is in the Netherlands
Passed through does not mean 'has left'.

It means that it's at the sorting hub there now, and will now be given to carriers for each territory.

This can take anywhere between 12-36 hours. It often depends on 'flights' and shipping times / deadlines for themselves.

We will receive an update once it has properly left Arnhem.

Hm, something weird happened now with my order: I ordered the 1.6/80 and the Superdrive. Up until a few minutes ago, I had shipping/delivery at Feb. 8/21 and "Merge in Transit NL".

Now the shipping method reads "Fast Ship EMEA", and I have now two seperate shipping/delivery dates:

MBA is "prepared for shipment" with shipping/delivery Feb. 8/14.
Superdrive is still "Not yet shipped" with shipping/delivery Feb. 8/13.
Does that mean they are now shipped separately?

And another strange thing is that the Superdrive, which should arrive sooner, is lagging behind in not being prepared for shipment like the MBA.
