As I write this ( Friday 4th December ) my base Air has gone from “ preparing order “ to “ preparing to dispatch “
There’s a pending charge on my bank and delivery is stated as 11th December.
Ordered on the 26th with original delivery quoted as “4th to 11th December”

Anyone ordered a maxed out Air with 8C GPU/16GB/2TB? It looks like over the last couple of days shipping times jumped. I could’ve sworn it was just about delivery in December 2020 but when I finally ordered yesterday delivery is expected 27 January🙁

I knew I shouldn’t have procrastinated on ordering it! 🙂

You should check store availability for pick-up on this configuration. I believe that's one of the stock configs (or maybe stock has only 1TB...)

It's the 16GB/1TB option that is available for pickup. Unfortunately I use 1.1TB of space on my current Pro so that won't do.

Still no update here from DHL. I told myself this morning to stop checking but I don't see me doing that.

Same here ("Shipment information received" since Saturday), somehow even despite me checking the status every 10 minutes. Well you know what they say, "if your pot's not boiling, just watch it even harder" - I think that's how it goes.
 
Update:

MBA 16GB/1TB
Ordered 19th Nov
Estimate when ordering 4-11th Dec. 11th Dec estimate shown on Website.
Express Shipping Option

Was in Processing until this morning, has now moved to Preparing To Ship.

Fingers crossed that the 'Express Shipping' does mean its coming from the UK and hopefully DPD - I'll know soon enough once i get my tracking number.

This has me excited as we have the same spec and shipping, just my dates were 8th - 15th! 🤞

This has been a challenging Fri but I’ve just received confirmation from DHL that processing has been completed at Amsterdam and it should be with me on Mon 🤪

Shipped by DPD!

I'm going to assume that being as its DPD it is from the UK and will be with me tomorrow (if they do Saturday delivery), or Monday.

EDIT: Just spotted that Apples page says Monday 7th

FINALLY my DHL status has moved to "Processed", estimated delivery date Monday.

So for the record, the "Shipment information received / EINDHOVEN" status lasted for just over 6 days for me. The SMS and email alerts I signed up for on DHL's site didn't seem to work. And my F5 key is breathing a sigh of relief.

Mine shipped yesterday and Iv ordered on the 19th nov. But when I track on Dhl it says no results found. I also never got an email from Apple saying they’ve shipped it. Anyone else face this problem before?

It only says shipped on the Apple Store app

It took one day to receive an e-mail from Apple and to get a delivery date (15 December for me).

Sounds good. I just received the email right now, what a coincidence lol. Mine says 15th dec also. I guess we’re both in the same boat then
 
For the "stuck in Eindhoven"/DHL guys, the status stayed the same for almost 10 days before it eventually moved and in the next 2 days my MBP was delivered to my home. Just FYI because I know how crushing the wait is.
