Amazon Prime Air Drones Given Green Light By FAA

Your Amazon Prime package could someday come to you by drone.

On Monday, the Federal Aviation Administration designated Amazon as an “air carrier.” That clears the way for Amazon to start trial drone deliveries.

Prime Air has no specific start date but Amazon has already tested drone deliveries in Vancouver, British Columbia, and in the UK.

The FAA says it has granted Amazon approval to deliver packages by drone. Amazon says it is still testing drones, and doesn’t say when it expects to begin making deliveries to shoppers by air. https://t.co/bvdQOr9y6U
