Centre. We continue to advance the regulatory frameworks necessary

to support the safe and effective integration of unmanned aerial

systems into Abu Dhabi’s wider transport ecosystem.

He added that this pilot trial reflects the strength of collaboration

between the public and private sectors, and represents a concrete step

toward the future of smart aerial mobility in the emirate.

a transformative layer to urban delivery networks. With one operator

able to manage multiple deliveries simultaneously, the system brings a

new level of scalability and responsiveness to the logistics chain."

continued commitment to pioneering next-generation logistics solutions

that align with the UAE’s vision for smart mobility. By integrating

autonomous aerial technology into EMX’s national logistics ecosystem,

we are enhancing operational reach and speed, and building a more

adaptive, future-ready network capable of meeting the evolving

demands of commerce and connectivity."

The pilot marks the first phase in a broader strategy to deploy drone-

based logistics services across Abu Dhabi. With progressive regulation

and infrastructure readiness, the emirate is emerging as a leader in

autonomous air mobility within the region.
