DHL - packages stalled in HK
 

I have several packages sitting in HK since Friday and Saturday. They seem to have stalled.

Friday, October 01, 2010 at 16:44 Arrived at Sort Facility HONG KONG - HONG KONG

Saturday, October 02, 2010 at 05:15 Arrived at Sort Facility HONG KONG - HONG KONG

Saturday, October 02, 2010 at 12:26 Arrived at Sort Facility HONG KONG - HONG KONG

etc, etc, etc.

I realize there is a holiday going on but I figured DHL would be shipping regardless. I also realize that DHL sometimes doesn't update online during the weekend as well as they do during the week. I called DHL to confirm that a package was truly still in HK and they said yep.

Anyone else have any packages stalled in HK?

It's common that they do this. Some ports are working and some aren't.
So I'd say wait till the 7th

Mostly the companies will back to work on 4th .

ty.
I imagine things will start moving soon --yes?

I also have one stalled, but I am just as much in the dark as you are. Hopefully everything gets moving soon.

It is the middle of the "National Day" Holiday in China.
The official dates are Oct 1-7.
This is the last Holiday for them this year.

several of mine now say 'shipment on hold' - what do u think that means?

^^^^^^^^
Are they in the US or "On Hold" in HK?

I heard that HK DHL will start processing again on the 4th.

you're right-- as of this morning several have 'Departed Facility in HONG KONG - HONG KONG'
