Winter Storm – Additional Information
Since both carriers said their primary air hubs were affected by this winter storm, international shipments and shipments to other US zip codes may be delayed as well.
In addition, US ground hubs and transportation networks are likely affected in some way, again delaying shipments to zip codes not listed.
Shippers should continue monitoring shipments for any unusual tracking activity and reassure receivers that shipments are not lost, but most likely just stuck in a sorting or distribution center due to this widespread winter storm affecting key transportation corridors and networks.
This is a fluid situation and we will provide relevant updates. But you may also check the service alert pages for both carriers here:
