Delayed Post

[popculturepooka]

Posted a package to Europe on Tuesday nearly 2 weeks back. Took 8 days to leave Melbourne (I live in the burbs) for its destination. The initial estimate for delivery time was 9 working days, but the guy at the post office said that estimate was basically a pipe dream, and probably at least double it. I’m not confident at all.

I posted a package on April 1st to Japan.

Its been stuck like this ever since:

There is no/not enough flights available quote auspost for japan

. Please be advised that we are experiencing international delivery delays into Japan of up to 2 weeks due to limited flights and government restrictions.

Please note: Australia Post will suspend Economy Services for parcels into Japan effective 3 April and until further notice. Express and Standard Service for parcels will continue but there will be delays. Economy Services for letters will continue. Express items will be prioritised during this period.

Australia Post continues to work closely with partner airlines and postal operators to try to move items as quickly as possible.

I don?t believe anyone says, anything from outside Australia is basically surface speed or worse do likely 3-4 months.

Local eastern states to WA might take 1 month or less. Is a suck up, nothing we can do.

Something coming by DHL arrived in the country a week ago and it hasn't had an update since. Hoping for something any day now.
