Amazon Prime Air has ambitious drone delivery targets for 2023, but the company has yet to clear regulatory hurdles necessary to grow the business.
To get approval from the FAA, Prime Air must complete several hundred hours of flying without any incidents, and then submit the data to the agency.
Amazon has signed up about 1,400 customers for the service between the two test markets, but it can only deliver to a handful of homes.
Amazon says it is staffed to meet all FAA requirements for safe operations and safety standards.
The FAA declined Amazon's request to lift restrictions on flying over or over people, roads and structures.
Amazon has a target to make of 10,000 deliveries this year between its two test sites, even with the D&R campaign unfinished.
