Amazon’s drone delivery service is soaring into the stratosphere—literally. By year’s end, they’ll launch Prime Air to hundreds of new U.S. cities, expanding from just 11 spots. The sleek MK30 drones now hover and drop packages instead of landing, a nod to years of tweaking since Jeff Bezos first demoed octocopters back in 2013. For $4.99 (or free for Prime members spending $50+), it’s ideal for urgent needs—think sick kids or forgotten dinner ingredients. But don’t expect sky-high deliveries tomorrow: local government approvals are still required, meaning community meetings and resident input. With FAA clearance already in place nationwide, this expansion signals Amazon’s serious push to make drone delivery mainstream—and fast.
