Postal Disruptions

Given the fact that air routes have been curtailed, the Finnish postal service now can only guarantee post to 20 countries outside of Europe.  

The Finnish postal service has, however, halted deliveries to many countries in South America and Africa as well as New Zealand, among many others. "We have no way of making these connections at a reasonable price,"

What other unintentional disruptions might there be?

Thanks for posting that. I was about to order a very expensive tech item from Finland. I'll email the company to see what they suggest. I had a parcel from Finland at the start of the year and it took 10 days to get here to NZ by courier.

We posted our overseas Christmas cards on Nov 14th this year. It's the earliest we've ever posted them, and even on that date, NZ post couldn't guarantee they'd arrive before Christmas. We've posted to the Netherlands, USA, Australia and the UK. I accidentally posted one with them to go to the North Island here in NZ and it arrived yesterday. It took 10 days!!!!!!
