Google/Alphabet unit Wing has launched drone-to-home delivery service in select neighborhoods in Canberra, Australia. Consumers can order beverages, food, and drug store items such as coffee, gelato, and over-the-counter medicines from merchant partners via the Wing mobile app and have their goods within minutes. For now, deliveries are limited to select consumers in the suburbs of Crace, Palmerston, and Franklin. Wing expects to gradually expand to more customers in Harrison and Gungahlin in the coming weeks and months.
