But whole pizzas? Soda too?<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"1\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Little Caesars is now getting in on drone delivery through a new partnership with Flytrex, and the companies say this new setup can deliver an actual family meal, including two large pizzas and drinks, in a single flight.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"2\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">That is apparently possible thanks to Flytrex\u2019s new Sky2 drone, which was built to carry heavier food orders than the average delivery drone, not just one sad little meal for one person who forgot to grocery shop.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"watch-next\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-22\" data-node-id=\"3\" class=\"embed\"\/>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"4\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The first Little Caesars location using the service is now live in Wylie, Texas, where customers ordering through the Flytrex app can have their order sent through the chain\u2019s existing system and then, yes, flown to them. According to Flytrex, the drone can travel up to four miles, and the average trip from takeoff to delivery takes about 4.5 minutes, which is extremely fast by normal food-delivery standards.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Flytrex says the Sky2 can also carry up to 8.8 pounds, which lets it transport things like two 16-inch pizzas, drinks, and sides in one go.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">While the logistics of flying hot food through the sky still feel a little ridiculous on paper, there\u2019s something deeply compelling about not having to wonder whether your delivery driver got stuck in traffic, made an unscheduled stop, or quietly gave your soda a dangerous tilt.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Of course, the real test is not whether a drone <em data-node-id=\"7.1\">can<\/em>deliver pizza. It is whether people actually want their dinner lowered from above on a regular basis. But if there is any food designed for a futuristic handoff, it is probably something flat, boxed, and already associated with arriving on time.<\/p>\n<section data-embed=\"editorial-link\" data-lazy-id=\"P0-23\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"embed\">\n<aside class=\"css-u95ltk e94w1mj3\"\/><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2 min read Little Caesars has partnered with Flytrex to launch drone delivery using a new heavier-lift drone.
