DoorDash is testing a drone delivery feature in Virginia

EngadgetMar-21-2024, 16:30:15 GMT

DoorDash just announced the launch of a drone delivery pilot program, in partnership with Alphabet's Wing. The testing began in Christiansburg, VA (approximate population 22,000), and is limited to only "eligible items" from fast food chain Wendy's. Whether that includes the iconic Frosty dessert/fry condiment is as yet unclear. There's only one affiliated Wendy's location, but local consumers should see a "deliver by drone" tab on the DoorDash checkout page. The company says orders should arrive in 30 minutes or less, making high-flying drones about as fast as a standard pizza delivery in the 1980s.
