Talk to your local Postmaster they can provide more detailed tracking info, however once the contents of the overnight from one destination to another were placed in the larger postal bin, it would only show details for the bulk not each piece of mail until arriving at the local sorting facility for delivery.
For what it's worth, I think a USPS employee is far more likely than an airline employee. I work for a major airline, and always see those USPS boxes going up the belt loader when I walk around the plane. They aren't necessarily super secure, but they are wrapped and the employees would have to open them, and some how wrap them again, to do that. And the fact is that those baggage carts pull up to the plane, the two guys on the ramp load them on the belt, and the guy in the cargo compartment stacks them inside, as fast as they can get it done. Again, not impossible, but I don't really see that being where the problem is. I guess all three of them could be in cahoots and snag a box of mail, but I think it's more likely to happen elsewhere in the transit.
