Default Major delays with International Mail to/from Australia

Hi Guys,

I guess this comes as no great surprise due to Covid19. Guess any purchases/trades between UK and Australia will continue to experience major delays.

From Australia Post.

International delivery delays
Impact of novel coronavirus
3 April 2020

From this week Australia Post expects major international delivery delays due to flight cancellations and government restrictions because of COVID-19. Australia Post is working with partner airlines and other postal operators to move items as quickly as possible.

Please note Australia Post will suspend its “Economy Air” international delivery service for parcels to all countries effective 3 April and until further notice.

For mail to/from UK.

3 April 2020
There are flight disruptions and cancellations impacting all inbound and outbound items to United Kingdom.

We expect delays to United Kingdom of up to 2 weeks due to flight cancellations and government restrictions because of COVID-19.

Express items will be given priority over Standard items during this time.

Please note: Australia Post will suspend Economy Services for parcels effective 3 April and until further notice. Economy Services for letters will continue.

United Kingdom will no longer be performing signature on delivery for items delivered to the United Kingdom due to government restrictions

Australia Post is working closely with partner airlines and postal operators to move items as quickly possible.

Mick
