Airline handover problem at departure transport hub

Aliexpress Standard Shipping tracking parcel

What this status means

"Airline handover problem at departure transport hub" is an Aliexpress Standard Shipping message. Your parcel is at the hub where it is meant to be passed to an airline for the international flight. Something went wrong with that handover, so the parcel did not go onto the flight as planned. It is still in the courier's network, in the country of dispatch.

Is my package delayed?

This message is an exception, not a routine step. It usually means a problem. The parcel has missed or been held back from its flight, so a delay is likely. What follows decides the outcome: most often the parcel goes to exception handling in a sorting center, and in many cases it is then sent back to the sorting center or the sender's side. Only a small share of parcels go straight on and leave the country.

What happens next

  • Most often, the parcel is moved to exception handling in a sorting center, where staff check it.
  • Many parcels then get a return-related message, such as a return outbound scan.
  • Some parcels are cleared and continue, with a departure scan from the transit country or district.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking the tracking history. Updates may be slow while the parcel is being handled.
  • If nothing changes for longer than the previous steps took, or return messages appear, contact the seller through the marketplace.
  • Have your order number, tracking number and a screenshot of the tracking history ready.
  • If the parcel is returned, ask the seller about a resend or a refund.
