Wing, an offshoot of Google parent company Alphabet, officially launched its drone delivery service Friday, delivering a FedEx package through the air from a distribution center to a consumer’s home in Christiansburg, Virginia, according to the company’s medium blog.

The blog goes on to explain “Wing’s collaborators on this service — FedEx Express, Walgreens, and local Virginia retailer Sugar Magnolia — are the first businesses in the United States to offer this form of local air delivery to customers. FedEx is completing the first scheduled e-commerce drone delivery in American history today, and becomes the first company in the United States to connect online retailers to last-mile drone delivery services. Building on a heritage of innovation, today Walgreens is also making aviation history by completing the first on-demand, commercial drone delivery directly to a home in the U.S. Through this pilot, Walgreens will be the first U.S. retailer to provide customers with on-demand drone deliveries of over-the counter medications and convenience items.”

According to a Business Wire report, Wing became the first company to receive Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) approval for door-to-door drone delivery, beating Amazon’s Prime Air, which is scheduled to begin deliveries on December 7, and Uber Eats’ drone delivery program to market.

A Washington Post article, describes this as “history in the making”:
