Air parcel post rates to rise November first
Postmaster General Donaldson announced that air parcel post rates will increase on November 1. For packages over 8 ounces and up to 16 ounces, and heavier sums on cross country routes, the changes affect several zones with higher charges per pound. He noted revenue gains will cover rising postal costs, while most small parcels under two pounds see limited or no impact.
