How many packages do drones deliver today?
About 8 million worldwide in 2025, on track for 15 to 20 million in 2026. Zipline is the leader with 2 million deliveries done and 4,320 a day. Wing, owned by Google's parent Alphabet, is past 400,000. Walmart passed 1 million drone deliveries across its partners in May 2026. Amazon flies from more than a dozen US cities. In China, Meituan drones carry food in Shenzhen. Now the reality check: the world ships 2,760 parcels every second. Drones do 1 every 4 seconds. Big growth, tiny base. The drone delivery business itself is $4 billion in 2026 and $15 billion in my 2030 forecast.
