How long does it take for mail to get to Honduras from the United States?

Question

I mailed a letter to a friend in Honduras nearly two months ago, and I haven't got a response back from her yet. Does anyone know how long it takes for letters to get back and forth from the United States to Honduras? I'm aware that large envelopes and packages can be taken by the curious postal workers, but this was simply a standard sized envelope with only a letter inside. I realize that it takes a while but I'm wondering if anyone knows specifically how long it takes because I've been getting really anxious to receive this letter the last week or so. If anyone could help me out I'd greatly appreciate it!

Answer 1

I have friends there too and it takes anywhere from 2-3 weeks each way.....

Answer 2

I honestly dont know the exact amount of time, but it could possibly take a couple of weeks...no more than a couple of months though. Mail service sucks there. When we send packages they get there all beaten up and stuff..

Answer 3

I think it can take up to 4 weeks each direction. I was visiting Honduras recently and we sent some postcards to friends back here in the States and they still haven't received them. That was about 4 weeks ago.

If you still haven't received anything in one more month or so, try sending another letter.

Good luck!

Answer 4

Lol. This is why I don't mail letters.  My cousin wrote to me from Honduras and it took nearly a month and a half from the date she sent it for me to receive it.  I'm referring to regular postal mail.  So I am assuming that it will probably take the same amount of time for you to receive a response.  Hope this helps.
