Just consider yourself fortunate that you weren't expecting a dog and it ended up in Japan... or worse, dead because some stewardess stuck the dog container in the overhead bin and didn't know a dog was in the container...duh.
FIFY. She knew. Airline later admitted it. Absolutely inexcusable.
When we lived in Ketchikan, Alaska if we sent mail to another address in town that mail was flown to the mail sorting facility in Anchorage and then flown back. 1500 mile round trip to send a letter across town.
As it turned out, my watch from japan made it yesterday. It arrived in NYC on the 17th and was at my door yesterday. The one from texas... not so much.
In fact, their 'tracking' doesn't even claim to know where it is now. Instead it just says 'left facility en route to destination'.

AFAIK, tracking info is only updated when packages leave or reach a facility (maybe not even then, if they leave in the same truck they arrived in).

yeah, it's only when scanned. the funny thing is that this one doesn't seem to get scanned that often. Aside from not showing up until it was atlanta, it seems to have several arrivals with no departures. In fact, the last location is actually said was 'arriving' in mobile, AL. No other departures or anything, just now 'en route to destination' with no place (city, state, facility, etc) mentioned
none of it is surprising and frankly it's getting comical

This ain't some type of "time travel" watch, is it...? 
Anybody get the USPS informed delivery?
I got an email from them a year or so ago and asked if I wanted to be a beta tester. Its worked perfectly so far except on packages.
I get a picture of every piece of 1st class mail coming to the mailbox every morning. Our mail doesn't get here until late afternoon.

I could rail on the USPS forever but they are NOT a federal agency anymore. So it is incorrect to say "Your government at work!".
Never heard of it! Sounds rather interesting, though!
