On December 17, Dubai Civil Aviation Authority issued the UAE's first over-the-horizon drone delivery commercial operation qualification certificate for Chinese company Meituan.

Dubai Crown Prince Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum inaugurated the Dubai launch ceremony for the commercial operation of Meituan drone logistics on the same day. He said Dubai will continue to support the development of projects in the aviation and transport sector through advanced technologies to create a diversified and flexible digital economy.
At the drone delivery demonstration held on the same day, the staff opened the mobile takeout software, selected the good food and then selected the drone delivery location, about ten minutes later, the low and stable buzz came, and the drone carrying the takeout box slowly landed in the takeout cabinet located in the Dubai branch of Rochester Institute of Technology. Enter the verification code, take out the takeout box, and the hot food appears in front of you.
According to reports, the first batch of drone delivery routes opened this time are mainly deployed in Dubai's Silicon Valley oasis area, which can provide fast food, emergency medicine and other goods delivery services for the people of the Rochester Institute of Technology Dubai Branch and Dubai Digital Industrial Park.
In recent years, Dubai has actively explored the development of smart city solutions, and the intelligent application of drones is regarded as an important initiative to promote the development of the transportation sector.
Yusuf, president of the Rochester Institute of Technology Dubai Branch, said that he is looking forward to cooperating with more Chinese enterprises to promote the development of innovative technology cooperation. Abdulghani, CEO of Faki University Hospital in Dubai, said that drone delivery of emergency medicine helps to improve the convenience of medical services, and more application scenarios can be expanded in the future.
