Yesterday, the FAA finally did what many of us in the industry have been asking for: it cleared the path for drones to fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) without needing one-off waivers.
That one decision?
It unlocks the drone economy in this country.
It’s the most important regulatory moment in drone delivery since day one. And for Arrive AI, it's go-time.
For too long, American companies have been stuck waiting for permission to build what other countries are already doing. Meanwhile, in places like India, consumers get thousands of drone deliveries a day — safely and reliably. We know, because we’re a part of it.
This new FAA rule changes the game. No more red tape. No more waiting. Just a clear, workable framework that allows real progress.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy called it what it is: a move to “unleash American drone dominance.”
“This is a watershed moment,” I said it yesterday — and I meant it.
It brings us significantly closer to a future where drones, robots, and smart delivery points work together to move goods securely, efficiently, and autonomously.
We’ve been ready for this. And we’re already moving.
The U.S. package delivery industry is worth $191 billion. And yet, porch piracy, missed deliveries, bad weather, and inefficient routes cost billions more each year.
That’s where we come in.
Our Arrive Points™ are the only patented delivery infrastructure built for the future — drone-ready, ground robot-friendly, and just as usable for a human driver. They’re secure, connected, and they make sure every package is tracked, verified, and delivered right — every time.
This isn’t just about drones. It’s about the last inch of the autonomous last mile.
We’re not waiting for the market to catch up. We’re already rolling out our system around the world. One example: Skye Air Mobility in India, where our platform will be deployed to serve over 33 million people. That’s not a pilot. That’s at scale.
And we’re bringing the same energy here at home. Our cities, hospitals, and businesses are ready for secure, automated delivery — and now the rules are finally catching up.
“This is the way of the future.”
We’re going to make the delivery process safer, faster, and simpler — for everyone.
We’re going to move fast. We’re going to stay focused. And we’re going to keep building the most secure, most scalable autonomous delivery network in the country.
We know the public wants this. We know the tech is ready. Now, the skies are too.
Let’s fly.
