To get them there in time for Hanukkah, which starts Dec. 6, subtract 19 days from each deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Standard Post: Nov. 7<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Space Available Mail (SAM): Nov. 25<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parcel Airlift Mail (PAL): Dec. 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Priority Mail: Dec. 10, except for AE ZIP 093, which is Dec. 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First-class letters and cards: Dec. 10, except for AE ZIP 093, which is Dec. 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Priority Mail Express Military Service: Dec. 17. This service is not available to\u00a0AE ZIP 093; check with your local post office to find out if it&#8217;s available to another specific APO\/FPO\/DPO address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Standard Post generally takes longer than other mailings. Compare the costs;\u00a0the USPS notes that in some cases, the costs of Priority Mail and Standard Post are similar, while Priority Mail travels faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, remember that the USPS offers a postage discount of $2 per box on its largest priority mail flat rate box, at $15.90, for mail being sent to APO\/FPO\/DPO addresses worldwide. There is no cost for the boxes themselves; the cost is for the postage to send the boxes. You can get them at local post offices\u00a0or online at <a href=\"https:\/\/store.usps.com\/store\/\">shop.usps.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s time to start
