On average how long does it take to recieve a package shipped Air Parcel from Hong Kong to the US. According to the tracking number, it is in transit right now. I'm kind of kicking myself for not choosing EMS shipping for only $10 more.

Usually about a week.
EMS is about 3-5 days.

I've had parcels arrive anywhere from nine to fourteen days from that area.

Actually, I have had items take as much as a month to get here from Hong Kong using air mail. The extra buck won't hurt ya if you really want the item in a hurry.

Throw money to the wind and FedEx it overnight

According to the FedEx website, a 5 lb package sent from HK to CT (I picked Yale's ZIP code) in 24-48 hours would be $125.79 in shipping :p

I have ordered 2 packages from HK and they both took 3 days to get to CA via EMS.
