Amazon is aiming to provide drone delivery in under two hours to the Syracuse, New York area.

The company held an community information meeting to talks about its plans to expand drone delivery in Clay Town and surrounding areas, according to a WSYR-TV report.

"Our goal is to do deliveries in under an hour, but really under two hours right now," Jeff Cleland, who runs infrastructure and regulatory affairs for Amazon Prime Air, told the news outlet. "Its ultra-fast delivery under two hours is what we're aiming for with the eventual goal of under an hour for these products customers need in real time."
