While package carriers were unable to deliver all holiday packages in time for Christmas in 2013, they achieved a better outcome in 2014 and hope to continue their successes this holiday season, which is forecasted to have a record-breaking number of deliveries. FedEx predicts delivering 317 million shipments - a 12.4 percent increase over last year's holiday season; UPS estimates having 630 million packages - a 10 percent increase; and the U.S. Postal Service believes it will deliver 15.5 billion pieces of mail and 600 million packages - a 10.5 percent jump over last year's number.
