@Hitokage and @SincerelyGeo, thank you for your report!

@djctv2020 Just to let you know that we are not keeping track of delays.
This is what we are looking for.

  • Suspensions only (=when your post office will not accept mail to the destination. Not delays.)
  • Outbound only (=sending, not receiving)
  • Regular letter post only (not EMS/urgent/express, parcels/packages)
  • Mid to Long-term ISO 3166-1 “Country-to-country” suspensions (not provincial/local)

Thanks!

Airmail services to Australia, Canada, Mexico, United States and certain other destinations suspended
https://www.hongkongpost.hk/en/about_us/whats_new/press_release/index_id_823.html

Significant delay or, the worse scenario many HK Postcrossers expect, total lost for mails towards the aforementioned countries is expected.

We’re keeping our fingers crossed that the delays won’t be so bad — or, that Hong Kong Post will be able to quickly find some planes to resume these connections!
