My MBA shipment delayed because of weather conditions :(

Just checked the weather forecast for Shanghai/Hong Kong, and it looks just fine. I think they are coming up with bad excuses.

So probably wont get it this week as promised.

OMG my MBA is being shipped around to random locations in Asia, it appears!

Shanghai, China > Incheon, S. Korea > Hong Kong

Makes no sense. Hope they get it sorted out soon...

That seems like an awfully inefficient way to ship a package, but what do I know.....

Mine got to Alaska yesterday afternoon and supposedly left at 4:52pm yesterday. But, I have yet to see any updates and it's been almost a day. I'm hoping this means the system just didn't update and my little beauty is on its way to my doorstep today.

I've seen this twice since I got the machine. It may just be the color profile I set, so I switched it off and it'll be interesting to see if it happens again.

I think my 13" i7 8GB 512GB is on the same flight, hopefully on its way to Europe as we speak, can't wait, mine is replacing a 5 year old MBP :)

My macbook air 13" was ordered on the 13/06/2013 from the uk apple store and is also on the same crazy route of Shanghai, China > Incheon, S. Korea > Hong Kong where it was delayed by weather like a few other on here.

My scheduled delivery day is 20/06/2013, didn't think I would receive it for then because of the delay but I've just checked the tracking again and it's finally arrived in Germany so it might actually make it to me by tomorrow after all as long as it can get to the uk by early morning.

I hope it's showing the same for you guys as well as I think we're probably all on the same shipment anyway.

Good Luck!, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Mine too, it's in Tamworth and is out for delivery now. Can't wait, so excited.

YUS!

Went from Korea to Germany and then to London overnight. Out for delivery as of 7.30 this morning in London. I was worried the weather was going to delay this until next week!

Mine just got delivered, I wasn't home but luckily someone else was, just on my way home now, can't wait to get it up and running, it's my first mac so I've got a lot to learn.

Not bad delivery wise considering it was purchased on the 13/06/2013 and despatched on the 18/06/2013 and delivered on the 20/06/2013.

So basically delivered within 5 working days, much better than their original estimate of 21/06/2013-24/06/2013.

Hope the rest of you guys get yours ASAP.

Awesome.
Mine was ordered 3 days after you and looks like it'll leave China today or tomorrow as it's moved to 'preparing for dispatch'.
Come on! :)
I reckon it might get here before the predicted 25th-27th.
