How long does a letter via Airmail from America take to reach Japan?

Question:


I've heard many answers..ranging from 4-6 days for certain services, to 30 days for other services...O_O

I sent a letter to my friend in Japan yesterday, and I'm just wondering how long it'll take to get to him.

Answer:


Taneka is basically clueless.

Airmail is 7-10 days. You've heard other time frames because there are other ways to send it. The last I heard, there is no more surface mail out of the U.S. They still have it in Japan. Takes 6-8 weeks for a package to go from Japan to the U.S.

But a letter? 7-10 days. Could be slightly quicker or slightly slower.
