Amazon Order Status
If you are expecting a delivery and are eager to know the status of your delivery, then all you need to do is log in to your Amazon Account and check the status of your order. It’s that simple.
Status: ”On the Way”
Sometimes, you may see this message for a particular delivery when you log in to your orders section on Amazon or via a notification sent by them.
This status indicates that your order has been shipped and is on its way.
However, it does not convey or confirm an exact date and time of delivery since the package is still in transit and has not reached the location closest to you, nor does it mean that the package is out for delivery.
You can consider this message as a confirmation that the product you have ordered is in stock and has been shipped by Amazon to your destination.
