Overview
- Service is live from the Chipotle at 3109 Lakeview Pkwy in Rowlett, Texas, with ordering limited to select Zipline app users ahead of a broader rollout in the coming weeks.
- Orders are staged at a curbside Zipping Point for autonomous pickup; aircraft hover about 300 feet while a smaller Zip lowers the meal precisely to the delivery spot.
- Initial parameters include up to 5.5 pounds per order rising to 8 pounds over time, daily hours of 12–8 p.m. CT expanding toward 10 p.m., and a $2.99 fee plus a 15% service charge capped at $6.
- Early operations are range-limited, with some Dallas-area P2 sites constrained to roughly two miles, and wider expansion hinges on BVLOS permissions and evolving FAA frameworks.
- Zipline cites more than 1.6 million deliveries and over 100 million autonomous miles, and it is also working with retailers such as Walmart and planning a future launch with Sweetgreen.
