  Hi,
  I'm trying to mail a birthday card for my friend living in Sweden, but I never done it before. I read online and found out that it costs $1.10 by airmail (4-6Days) and 55c by surface mail(6-8 weeks).
  I have no idea what's the difference and I want the fastest one which is airmail, but i dont know how to indicate that I want that service.
  Btw, do i have to go down to Post Office myself or can i just drop it in the mailbox?

  Thanks in advance

  You can write "Airmail" on the front of the envelope.

  You can also get airmail stickers for free from the post office.
