Sometimes tracking hits snags, but most are fixable. A big one is delays from bad weather – Iceland's storms can slow things down. Customs checks for international packages might take extra days, especially if the documents are missing. Wrong addresses lead to returns, so double-check details.

Reach out to support if nothing changes after a week.
