    I was just thinking today how the term “air mail” fell off the face of the earth.

      Staples sells AIR MAIL ink stampers because most corporate mailrooms in the USA mark letters and packages heading overseas with the familiar red AIR MAIL. The U.S. Post Office also supplies free booklets of blue AIR MAIL PAR AVION stickers. They can’t produce the stickers fast enough, because everybody uses them. If you drop off several of tubs of outgoing mail daily to the Post Office and have a Metered Business Account, the Post Office will require all AIRMAIL separate from domestic and clearly marked AIRMAIL, to help them sort.

        Well you coulda fooled me. I’m still convinced it is only used as an archaic term of sorts, with no real popular usage at all except for some little Apple app I’ve seen today. And the fact that the .com is nothing but a parking page sure says a lot imo. But I want you to prove me wrong.

        It’s a bit like the term “World Wide Web.” People know what it is, it may appear a bit here and there, but it seems to have largely become an almost archaic seldom used term. “Air mail” or “airmail” even much more so.
