Amazon Expands Drone Deliveries After FAA Approval

Amazon has received FAA approval to expand its drone delivery program, allowing its Prime Air service to operate drones beyond visual line of sight. This approval, initially applicable to College Station, Texas, enables Amazon to scale its operations and potentially expand to more locations across the U.S. The company demonstrated its drones' ability to detect and avoid obstacles to gain this approval, marking a significant step in its long-term goal of delivering 500 million packages by drone annually by the end of the decade.
