Key Takeaways:

Walmart and drone delivery partner Wing are significantly expanding their service beyond Dallas-Fort Worth, with permits and proposals underway in Georgia, North Carolina, and Texas, as part of a larger plan to reach Florida.
Wing's automated electric drones deliver packages up to 5 pounds (some initial locations 2.5 pounds) within a 6-mile radius from compact, largely automated ground operations, with remote pilots providing human oversight.
The widespread scaling of drone delivery hinges on the FAA's proposed Part 108 rule, expected by early 2026, which aims to establish a permanent regulatory framework for Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations despite industry and pilot safety concerns.

Walmart and drone delivery partner Wing in June announced plans to expand beyond Dallas-Fort Worth—where they have completed more than 75,000 deliveries since launching in 2022—to Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina. It may not be long before those services arrive.

Last week, the cities of Conyers and Woodstock—both suburbs of Atlanta—announced that they have approved permits that would allow the partners to introduce drone delivery. The permits cover one Walmart store in each location, Wing confirmed in an email to FLYING. The company said it will share more specifics in the near future.
