Amazon suspends drone delivery plans in Italy

Amazon has decided not to proceed with its plans for commercial drone deliveries in Italy. According to the company, the legislative framework in Italy is currently not favourable enough to support the project’s goals.

Unexpected decision

The decision comes despite successful test flights with delivery drones in the Abruzzo region in December last year. Amazon used its MK-30 drone, a model with sensors and autonomous navigation that performed promisingly in tests. Due to its success, Amazon was dreaming of a European rollout of drone delivery, ET writes.
