I ordered me an 13"/i5/8GB/128GB Air on Saturday. Says 3-5 days to ship. Expected arrival between the 25th and 27th. Hopefully faster! At least I'll have a shiny new 5s to play with come Friday!

Mine is currently enroute from China to London- left South Korea 4 hours ago.

Went for 13", i5, 8GB, 128GB, the same spec as my 2012.
It isn't my main system, I mostly use a Mac Pro.

Ours aren't far apart then and might even be in the same shipment. Mine has made from Korea to Kazakhstan now!

How long did it take for you to receive yours? I ordered the exact same configuration on Saturday.

I ordered it close to midnight on Friday, Sept 6. There was no activity (weekends) until Monday, Sept. 9. It got shipped on the 10th, arrived at the sorting facility in San Diego on Saturday, Sept 14 and delivered around 9am on the 16th.

It went from China to Anchorage to Tennessee to San Diego. I got the standard shipping (free). Expect about 5 business days after it gets shipped if you have the same shipping unless you get lucky for some reason and get it earlier than expected --- This happened on other FedEx deliveries.

Ok, thanks for the info. Mine changed from "Processing Items" to "Preparing for Shipment" a few hours ago.

Yup, me too.
Let's see who receives theirs first, eh?
Last one to receive theirs buys the beer. ;)

lol :) I can't imagine where the next stop will be.. it's already taken a far more interesting route than I would have imagined.

Germany next apparently..

I ordered mine just before the close (literally) of the 2013 Back to School offer, on Friday 6th of September…

My MacBook Air (13" | i5 | 8GB | 128GB) arrived yesterday (Monday, 16th of September), having traversed the following route:

• MacBook factory, China
• Shanghai, China
• Incheon, Republic of Korea
• Almaty, Kazakhstan
• Warsaw, Poland
• Koeln, Germany
• Castle Donnington, United Kingdom
• Stansted, United Kingdom
• Norwich, United Kingdom

How long did it take once it reached Kazakhstan? Because that's where mine is now!

If you take the tracking number from the Apple tracking site (should start 1Z) and stick it in the UPS tracking system, it'll actually give you the UPS estimated date of delivery...

About two weeks ago I had an 2013 13" MBA (i5/8/256) and I returned it back to Apple a few days after I received it.

This morning I ordered the 2013 13" MBA (i7 1.7/8/256) at Apple. When I had the i5 version of the MBA I was fairly happy with it, but I'm more of a power user. I decided to go with the i7 processor this time because it will be my primary computer for a while.
