Official wording
Your package is delayed and likely won’t arrive before its original estimated date or time. This can happen when there’s higher shipping volumes than usual, dangerous weather, vehicle breakdown, or local security restrictions. There’s nothing you need to do at this point.
What to do
Wait for updates. Optionally check FedEx Service Alerts for weather or disruption notices covering the route. If you are looking at a U.S. tracking page, a related official FAQ status is Delivery Now Pending (a delay changed the delivery time). That is not the same official wording as Running late, which was verified on the FedEx GB FAQ.
Wording verified on the FedEx GB FAQ. The US glossary checked on 2026-11-10 still has no Running late (it lists Exception / Delivery updated instead). The matching US FAQ path returned 404 on 2026-11-10. A related US FAQ status, Delivery Now Pending, is similar in meaning (a delay changed the delivery time) but is not the same official wording. See the Delivery Now Pending entry; the two statuses are not aliases of each other.
