Reading Tracking Without Panicking
Tracking is a sequence of handoffs, not a countdown. A parcel that has not moved for six days is usually waiting for a flight, not lost. The two exceptions are export customs and the destination sorting centre, where a ten-day silence means something.
Useful habits: save the tracking number in the order page, not in a chat; check the line’s published average before assuming a delay; and treat “arrived at facility” as the start of the next step, not the end of the last one.
If a parcel is genuinely lost, the claim window matters more than the tracking page. Ask the agent for the deadline on day one, not week six.
