Not sure why the CAA don't do Special Delivery on this. Is there a different service level that FedEx UK are offering?
To counteract other posters re: FedEx. FedEx Express, the international arm of FedEx, as opposed to FedEx UK (which used to be called something else before being bought by FedEx a couple of years ago) have transformed my business. 95% of my shipments are outside the UK - and I send thousands PA. I won't bore you with the details, but end to end global time definite tracking is key, and I don't spend half my waking hours aimlessly tracking packages around the planet as I did with Royal Mail for foreign deliveries.
Having said all that, I still use RM Special Delivery within the UK, it's a cost and time sensitive option. Maybe Fedex UK demand more ID than Special delivery do.
