Default Express Delivery Service?

Anyone know of a super quick delivery service? I want to send a card to someone in China but I'd like it to arrive by Thursday (ideally) or by Friday at latest.

I couldn't find anything on a Google search.

It's probably impossible but thought I'd ask here for some ideas... cost isn't an issue.

If cost is no object, hire a private jet. :lol:

Check out Same day messenger to see what they offer. Since they move parcels and fly cargo almost daily, they probably have a service for the letter mail variety.

If they have net access...just send an "E-card".

My brother has been working in China the last two years and that's what he's gotten from me...

The sentiments the same.

UPS has express service to China. I think its around two days for express service, and 3 days for expedited. If its just a card you can drop it in an overnight ups letter and send it that way. If you put anything other than a card or note in it; like a small gift, it gets a little complicated. Then you
have to put an invoice on it for tax or duties. Just call UPS for info. Then I would take it to a center and ship it that way.

It's now Sunday and he wanted it there Friday...

I don't think UPS can help him unless they've added one of these to the fleet...
