Delivery Exception: Late Line Haul Beyond SkyNet Control

Buffalo tracking parcel

What this status means

Buffalo has logged an exception on the delivery. "Line haul" is the long-distance truck or air leg that moves parcels between cities or major hubs. This message says that leg arrived late, for reasons outside the control of SkyNet, the carrier handling that part of the journey. Your parcel is most likely still in the courier's network, either at a hub or on its way to the local delivery depot. It has probably not yet reached the last-mile driver.

Is my package delayed?

Yes, this is an exception. The parcel missed its planned connection, so delivery will probably be later than first expected. It usually points to a transport delay, not a lost or damaged parcel. The status is labelled as a failed attempt, but the message itself describes a late transfer, not a driver who tried to reach you and could not.

What happens next

Once the late truck or flight arrives, the parcel is unloaded, sorted and passed to the local depot. After that, it should be scheduled for delivery and show a new scan. Delivery will still take longer than it would have without the delay, and the timing cannot be predicted from this message.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking the tracking history for a new scan.
  • If the status does not change for longer than the previous steps took, contact Buffalo with your tracking number.
  • If you are still waiting after that, contact the seller, who can open an inquiry with the courier.
  • Keep your order details and delivery address ready when you get in touch.
