Transportation
Secretary Norman Mineta announced earlier today the resumption of commercial
and private flights effective 11:00AM EDT. Other than diverted international
passenger flights overnight, no other commercial air traffic has taken wing
since Tuesday.
Due to re-opening of air travel just this morning, NCS does not
expect any air cargo to arrive today. Delivery of stock tomorrow will be a
distinct possibility as UPS, Fedex, and other air couriers grind back to
business after two days of inertia. NCS will endeavor to process and ship all
orders as soon as possible but air service will ultimately determine our
immediate destiny. Airports around the country and in New York are operating
today but there may be limited flights taking off and landing due to the
security procedures mandated by the FAA. The logistics and difficulty in
re-starting the air travel machine from cold boot will also take
time.
Normalcy, if you can call it that, may return by the middle of
next week with regards to general air shipments and travel. At this time, UPS and
other couriers have suspended service guarantees around the country. In other
words, a box shipped with UPS 2nd Day may not arrive in 2 days. However, we
advise customers to keep their original shipping choice to avoid processing
problems due to the tenuous nature of air freight shipping policies at this
time. Thanks to everyone for their incredible support and understanding during
this difficult time. Some links are offered below to apprise everyone of current service
conditions:
