Is it me or does it really say there is no airmail to the USA?

There is airmail, surprisingly late - 15th December to the US.

In my experience, mail between US & Belgium is under 2 weeks, so that doesn't really surprise me.

Adding here. I've discovered there is now a minimum size for international mail. International size and weight restrictions 9 x 14 cm - however, a lot of the charity shop Christmas cards are shy of 14cm (13.5cm square). There seems to be no minimum size for within the UK.
