Amazon is accelerating its drone delivery ambitions, targeting 500 cities by year’s end to deliver lightweight packages—up to five pounds—in as little as 30 minutes. Focused on suburban areas with open airspace, the move expands access for millions while sidestepping urban congestion and regulatory hurdles. Though still in testing, with challenges around weather, noise, and landing zones, Amazon envisions half a billion drone deliveries by decade’s end, backed by federal approvals and safety tech. CEO optimism signals drones as a cornerstone of future logistics speed. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
