http://track-chinapost.com/startairmail.php shows LA103053844CN was shipped on April 25 from Yiwu. It is still in Jinhua/Yiwu airport waiting for flight to UK.

Coronavirus has cancelled more than 90% airline space to UK. China Post has serious shipping space shortage and bad delay.

Once parcel arrives Royal Mail website will show arrival info.

If your buyer protection is not expiring, I suggest you keep waiting. Otherwise open dispute for refund.

so why do both the 17track and Royal Mail apps say that it 'Departed country of origin' on April 28th?

The systems, including the Aliexpress site say it was received at the airport and accepted by the airline on April 25th, and departed the country on April 28th...

Shipment at country of origin warehouse 2020-04-25 22:11:00 [GMT+8]
Shipment accepted by airline 2020-04-25 22:12:38 [GMT+8]
Departed country of origin 2020-04-28 14:41:17

I have a second parcel.. LA103202588CN... ordered at the same time, that is showing the same info, but two days later..

Shipment at country of origin warehouse 2020-04-27 19:23:23 [GMT+8]
Shipment accepted by airline 2020-04-27 19:26:15 [GMT+8]
Departed country of origin 2020-04-30 14:15:20

"Departed country of origin" is a little bit misleading. It actually means the parcel has left the control of China Post(here country of origin means China Post, not China). After left the control of China Post, none will scan and update the status, so theoretically none knows the exact the location of the parcel.

However, based on our stats, the parcel has more than 90% chance still in Yiwu/Jinhua area. the reason is that covid 19 has cancelled most of the airlines to UK. It is impossible for your parcel to catch flight on April 28, it is too fast to be true.

Also Yiwu/Jinhua area has no flight to UK. So before the parcel catches flight to UK, it has more than 80% possibility to show up in big airports like Shanghai or Beijing in tracking result(not 100% necessary).

If it really gets a flight, then Royal Mail system will show arrival info in about 2 to 3 days.

Hope this is clear to you.
