Amazon Prime Air

Taking technology to new heights
Prime Air is a flagship initiative for Amazon. We’re pioneering a cutting-edge delivery system using autonomous aerial vehicles—or drones—to achieve a target 30-minute journey time from warehouse to customer.
This pathbreaking initiative enhances the service we already provide by optimizing transportation of lightweight items over short distances. It’s a smarter, greener, safer, more efficient way to serve our high-density customer base. It also opens up exciting technological possibilities to keep Amazon at the forefront of the home delivery revolution.
