Hi, I am waiting for a important parcel from mainland EU, it was posted a couple of days before Christmas. I was wondering, if there's only 3 days where post is actively being transported through the system between Christmas and new years or if other than them three days, post is moving through the system, or are all RM staff off over this period bar them three days? Would it even of gotten on the plain/boat if it was a bank holiday?
Thanks for your reply in advance.

Re: Does mail move through the system at all when deliveries are not ongoing?
There are covid test kit deliveries going on, but normal mail will not be moving between Christmas and New Year, except for the 3 working days in between. So Midnight tonight to evening shift Friday.
Also, the last posting day from the UK to Western Europe was 16 Dec, I would imagine a similar date for the opposite direction. I would estimate delivery sometime AFTER the new year. I doubt it has even left the originating country yet being sent so close to the Christmas holiday.
