Printable Version Shipping with FedEx during the Holiday Season – a quick reference tool


You can ship with certainty throughout the Christmas period - here’s important news about FedEx’s holiday operating schedules and service adjustments.

This year, as for every year since 1973, more than 290,000 FedEx staff worldwide will be ready to deliver your shipments right on time throughout the entire Christmas and New Year holiday season.

During the extended holiday period between Wednesday 24th December and Friday January 2nd we will therefore be making various changes to our normal operating schedules to fully meet all your shipping needs.

To ensure the best possible service for you and your customers between these dates please note that you should have your packages ready for collection at least one hour earlier than the normal scheduled collection time.

In line with our FedEx Service Guide we will also introduce several related changes to our standard Money Back Guarantee procedures to take account of the special demands of the holiday break. For further information, please click here.
