Well the story of UPS letting me down continues... Landed in Germany last night, missed it's connecting flight to the UK and now UPS and myself have no idea when it's coming! Doesn't look like there are any UPS flights scheduled to East Midlands at all over the next few days. 😭

There’s two tomorrow morning. One at 2:40am and one at 3:15am. Both with Star Air who only transport for UPS.

Mines in the same batch and hoping it makes it on to one of those planes.

On Thursday, March 24 two things happened:
  • Mac Studio arrives in Shanghai.
  • Apple Studio Display flips to “Preparing to Ship”
Nothing has changed since then.

UPS Arrival Estimate for the Mac has changed from:

  • Originally: Friday, March 25
  • First update: Monday, March 28
  • Second update: Wednesday, March 30
  • Third update: Your package is in transit. We’re updating plans to schedule your delivery. / The package will be forwarded to a UPS facility in the destination city.
I think it’s time to contact Apple.
I contacted Apple and they claim the new delivery date is April 1. They can’t continue to just add two days to delivery estimate indefinitely, can they?

Ahh nice find! Didn't know they flew cargo for UPS 👌🏻 All we can do then is hope they're scheduled onto those flights early tomorrow morning 🙏🏼
 
For those in the Shanghai 3/26 10:15pm bracket (there are enough of you to build a M1Godzilla Mac Pro!), I'm one day ahead: 3/25 10:10pm.

(UPS predicts March31 now).

Let's keep each other posted.

Just ordered the 10 Core CPU | 32 Core GPU | 64 GB RAM | 2 TB.
Yay!!

However… shipping estimates 10-12 weeks… i.e. mid-end of June.
Patience is a virtue…
 
Yay! Mine just left Shanghai after being there since 3/26. No updated delivery date but I'm betting Thursday or Friday.
 
Package left Amsterdam facility and Apple updated the date to "Soon to be delivered" (in French, so I don't know the exact translation).
Let's GOOOOO :)
 
Were you one of the 3/26 10:15pms?
Hard to say. Mine arrived in Shanghai on 3.23 but said it was in transit since 3/26.

Well if 3/23 to 3/25 left already today, I'm guessing 3/26 should leave tomorrow in the same UPS81 flight which is an UPS Tuesday to Sunday daily flight between Shanghai and Seoul.
 
Good news for 3/25 and possibly 3/26 people:
03/29/2022
2:28 A.M.
On the Way
Departed from Facility
Shanghai, China
03/25/2022
10:10 P.M.
Arrived at Facility
Shanghai, China
 
She told me to watch the tracking page tonight around 9PM so all you EU fellows might want to do the same
Oh and she also told me this is been happening a lot recently (No doubt due to the shutdowns) and that others have “received their packages on the promised day despite the lack of updates”, I don’t know if she was just telling me what I wanted to hear but that’s what I’ve been told.
Seems like your Apple lady was right! 🙂
Don’t believe the delivery date for one minute! I have a date of March 30th but I am sure the Studio will get delivered tomorrow.
I had the same thing happened last week with DHL. Actually many times. Mine was processed at Amsterdam and will be in Munich tomorrow
Yep, there is no way how it could take two days to get to Munich (or Stuttgart). I have a March 30 delivery date, too. But I also suppose mine will be here tomorrow. Maybe DHL is now extra conservative with delivery dates to prevent any further frustration. 🙂
