With USPS, UPS, and FedEx technically you can ship packages with lithium ion via Air if all the proper procedures are followed.
For USPS here's a link https://pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c3_027.htm#ep900090. My experience with USPS is that they will likely say no because they don't know if the batteries were packed in accordance to 349.222.
UPS and FedEx want the shipper to enter a Dangerous Goods Service Agreement. Having everything packed by an employee at a UPS Store or FedEx Office will get you around it as the store employees are qualified to handle and pack hazardous materials. It will add a few more bucks as you're now paying for professional packing, but can be beneficial if the contents arrived damaged and you have to make a claim with UPS or FedEx.
If all this sounds super inconvenient, ground ship it and call it shipped.
