What this status means

"Flight departure" means your parcel has been loaded onto an aircraft and has left the country it was shipped from. With Aliexpress Standard Shipping, this is the export stage: the parcel has cleared the departure country's handling and is now travelling by air towards the destination country. It is not a passenger-style flight booking, just the cargo leg of the journey.

Is my package delayed?

No. This message by itself is normal and is a sign of progress. Air transport is one of the main steps for international orders. If the tracking does not change for longer than the previous steps took, that is worth watching, but it does not usually mean something is wrong.

What happens next

After departure, the flight lands in or near the destination country. The parcel is then unloaded and goes through arrival scans and customs processing. After that it is handed to a local carrier for delivery. Updates can appear in batches, so several new lines may show up at once after a quiet period.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking. Scans often lag behind the actual flight.
  • Be ready for customs: depending on your country and the order value, import duties or taxes may apply.
  • If there is no update for much longer than usual, contact the seller or the marketplace's support.
  • Have your tracking number and order details ready when you write.
