   We started using the airborne@home service in October of last year to test its reliability, tracking capabilities and delivery times to our customers, said Keith Abbott, director of logistics at the J. Jill Group Inc. We discovered that Airborne exceeded our expectations by providing a much later departure time at our facility and an average delivery time of about three days to our customers..
   
   Airborne@home is a business-to-consumer residential deferred-delivery service that stems from a partnership between Airborne Express and the U.S. Postal Service. It allows Airborne to transport shipments using its sort hub network to one of more than 24, 000 local destination delivery units operated by the USPS within three to four days. Local postal carriers then deliver the packages to their residential destinations the next day. They can be tracked from the factory loading dock to the DDU through Airborne's tracking system and ultimately to the customer through the USPS delivery confirmation service.
