Anybody tried mailing anything to Australia? How did it go?

Post by rickfarang » September 4, 2020, 12:25 am

I want to send some things to a friend in Australia but I understand that international mail is not working well because of the lack of passenger flights between countries.

Having looked around for a while it seems that courier services are working between here and Australia but I cannot tell whether regular mail is up and running to Australia.

My question is: Is it likely that mail sent to Australia from Udon would arrive at its Melbourne area within a few weeks?

Thank you in advance for any insight that can be provided.
