What if you could make time-critical and high-value deliveries from shore to yachts at sea in just a blink? FLYDE aims to do just that. Instead of sending a tender to pick up supplies, yachts and support vessels can now receive deliveries by drone directly where they are anchored.

FLYDE’s goal is to manage and operate aerial corridors networks across the Mediterranean.Through the company’s digital platform, clients (whether provisioning agents, yachts, or logistics partners) can book a delivery slot in just a few clicks. Once the order is ready, FLYDE’s partner logistics team loads the parcel onto the drone at the departure port. The drone then performs a safe, fast, and low-impact delivery using an automated winch system.
FLYDE focuses on time-critical and high-value deliveries rather than bulk transport. Typical use cases include technical spare parts, medical supplies, urgent provisions, documents, and selected retail or luxury items. Payload capacity and operational range depend on the specific drone system and regulatory framework of each deployment zone. The service is optimised for rapid response logistics within coastal and offshore environments.
