Notification
Delay of Airmail delivery to the Netherlands and other countries
August 31, 2017
AIR FRANCE CARGO and KLM CARGO informed us on August 30 that airmail items bound for the Netherlands and other countries have experienced delay in processing owing to sorting machine trouble at their facility at the Amsterdam airport in the Netherlands.
According to their information, it will take about two weeks for recovery. Delivery is also expected to take more than two weeks.
In this regard, it would be appreciated if you could refrain from sending Airmail to the following countries for the time being.
Thank you for your kind understanding of this situation and cooperation.
