If the option is selected, the meal will arrive on a Wing drone, usually within around 30 minutes or less, according to a news release.

The drone delivery company Wing launched U.S. commercial operations in Christianburg in 2019 and is otherwise celebrating a successful year-long trial in Australia, becoming what it says is a preferred mode of delivery for millions of small packages, according to Wing’s blog.
