A FedEx delivery exception means that an unexpected event is delaying the delivery of your package. Some examples of delivery exceptions include customs delays, holidays, strikes, inclement weather, natural disasters, national holidays, vehicle/truck issues, or an unexpected event. If your package encounters a shipment exception, you can track its progress through the FedEx website or contact customer service for more information. Your package will still be delivered even if it says delivery exception, but there might be some delays. If you see packages with a shipping exception, they might still arrive at their final destination on time. If your package says "exception," the right thing to do is to contact FedEx immediately so they can help you handle delivery exceptions.
