UPS92 flight landed 4 mins ago in Shanghai. This is the aircraft getting our Mac Studios out of China. We should see departure scam in a few hours.

Mine is delivered as of this morning. It will sit on my front door step until later today.

5 days from China. Not bad all things considered.

My DHL tracking is still showing "Shipment information received – March, 22 2022" as the latest status update, but for the first time it has an estimated delivery date: "March, 30 2022 - By End of Day".

Pretty interesting that the status still basically reads "Dunno, we don't have it", but now they know it'll be at my door within 30 hours.

Arrived in anchorage at 11:06pm last night and is still there.
Mine arrived at Anchorage at the same time. Still shows "Your package is prepared for clearance" and UPS has cancelled my delivery for tomorrow. Check back tomorrow for updated delivery date. Friday maybe?

This is standard by DHL. Of course they know where the package is. It is just being transported from China to Europe via a different courier service which of course has an estimated delivery date.

If the rumblings here are correct, it may have been in Europe for the past 24 hours, but as far as the tracking code shows, it's still in the sender's hands.

If I use the URL that they sent to me via SMS a week ago, it shows the status as "Electronic shipping information received, but the package has not yet been handed to DHL."

Apple.com is also showing "Wednesday March 30" as the ETA, so I guess I can be slightly optimistic now?

Yes. You don't see the status of the transport from China to Europe. The DHL Status will change when the package clears customs in The Netherlands. You should see an update tonight though. If not then your package will not get delivered tomorrow, but most probably the day after. If you see no change in the DHL status by tonight, call Apple and let them know. They will research and let you know when the package will really arrive. This is what I did and Apple indeed did help and provided me with the right information, which in my case was a delay of one day.

Now updated to "Processed at AMSTERDAM", 17:58 local time, so I guess 18 minutes ago. Looks like the status updates are dragging behind actual actions, since I doubt that the estimated delivery time showed up without any kind of activity in regards to my package.

Yeah. You’ll get tomorrow or if you’re unlucky like me, in two days 😂 (plane was delayed).

Mine shows it cleared customs at 9:37 and arrived at Anchorage at 11:06. I have not received an update from UPS. Believe it or not, I am scheduled for delivery today between 11:30 and 3:30. Clearly, that is not going to happen.

I'm after the call with Apple. I was informed that my Studio has arrived in the Netherlands from China and is now waiting calmly for DHL to take action. The delivery date is still unchanged - April 1. Additionally, Apple support did a quick call with DHL, and they say they haven't scanned my package yet. I was counting on delivery before 1 April, but it turns out that DHL is in no rush 🙃
Same here. Ordered about an hour after the event (Max + upgrade to 1 TB). On the 23th it moved to prepare to ship and a few hours later to shipped with a tracking code from DHL. Apple says it should arrive the 1st of April. But since then there is no movement at all at DHL's tracking page. I'm also based in The Netherlands.

My Studio Display should arrive between 30th of March and 6th of April, but is still in processing. I hope to see some movement there too.

Card charged morning of 24 March. Status changed to Preparing to Ship this morning. So four days between card being charged and status moving to "Preparing to Ship".

Also as a quick aside: I was able to get a Studio Display at my local Apple Store, so I called to remove that from the order. The rep on the phone upgraded the Mac Studio to Express Shipping, which I'm sure will get it here zero days faster, but nice of him to do it.
Preparing to ship the morning of 28 March and shipped this morning (29 March) with an estimated delivery of 31 March from UPS and 6 April by Apple.

As a quick aside on the varying dates that people have seen: there was a note on my Apple account about needing to call Apple (Apple always lists shipments to Washington DC as going to Washington, MD and then UPS has to fix it--which, as you can imagine, us DC folks loooooove). The rep I spoke to kept saying it was scheduled to "clear customs" on 31 March for delivery by April 6.

I wonder if there's been some change to UPS's systems that's listing the delivery date as the date it's supposed to clear customs? In the past, UPS date for delivery of Apple products has been rock solid so this would definitely be a change. Apple's date has always been an underpromise/overdeliver, which still looks to be holding true.

My base MAX with 1TB ssd jumped from processing to shipped in the last few hours. According to MY UPS "The package is at the clearing agency awaiting final release" and sitting in Shenzen. Apple says it arrives late next week and UPS is promising it late this week. My original estimate was April 7-14. Destination: USA.
I woke to the same situation, although I doubt we will get it this week.

Now if I could get some movement on my Studio Display with vesa mount, ordered the day before the Max.
