Federal Express Corporation, a major player in express transportation, has released its shipping deadlines for the 2024 holiday season to assist Australian businesses and individual shippers. With five fewer days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, shoppers face increased pressure. FedEx encourages early shopping and shipping to avoid last-minute stress.

For domestic shipments within Australia, the deadline for Road Express is December 18, except for Western Australia and the Northern Territory where it is December 16. Priority services have a deadline of December 20, with final collection from local FedEx facilities by December 23.

Shipments to New Zealand require Economy services by December 18 and Priority services by December 20. For other international destinations, Economy service shipments should be sent by December 13 and Priority services by December 18.
