The French postal service has been given the go-ahead to start delivering parcels using drones.

France’s airspace regulator, the General Directorate for Civil Aviation, cleared the drones for take off. But that doesn’t mean French skies will suddenly be abuzz with unmanned aircraft—at present, the drones will only work on a prescribed nine-mile route once a week in the southern region of Provence, as a feasibility test for the tech and regulations.

The trial is being run by DPDgroup, an international subsidiary of French national postal service Le Groupe La Poste. The drone will travel from a pickup point in Saint-Maximin-La-Sainte-Beaume to Pourrières in the Var department, a region that has been chosen because it hosts a number of start-up companies, including a dozen specialising in tech.
