Manna Air Delivery has launched two new drone delivery bases in east Tulsa at The Shops at Alameda and Plaza Santa Cecilia. Residents living within a two-mile radius of these sites can now order from participating local businesses.

Why it matters

The expansion marks a significant push for drone-based logistics in Tulsa, following the company's initial entry into the market on Cherry Street less than two months ago. This growth aims to increase delivery access for area residents through localized flight operations.

Each new facility houses three delivery aircraft and operates from noon to 8 p.m., Wednesday through Sunday. The service area is currently capped at a two-mile radius around each of the two base locations.

The players

Manna Air Delivery

This logistics company specializes in drone-based delivery services for retail and restaurant partners.

The details

Customers place orders through the Manna Air Delivery app for items from businesses like Sr Lucas, Baga Sushi, and Cakes & Churros. Each base features a secure, fenced-in area with an enclosed structure designed to manage flight operations safely.

Timeline

  1. August 2026: Manna Air Delivery began its first service on Cherry Street.

  2. October 5, 2026: The company launched operations at two new bases in east Tulsa.

  3. Coming weeks: A third base is scheduled to launch at 31st Street and Garnett Road.

Market Landscape

The rollout of these bases follows the rapid expansion of last-mile drone delivery logistics across American cities. By scaling its presence, Manna is positioning itself to capture a larger share of the local quick-commerce market against traditional ground-based couriers.

Residents living within two miles of the new bases can now access faster delivery for local orders via the company's app. Future service updates are expected to expand both the operational hours and the number of available retail and grocery partners.

The takeaway

The addition of these bases makes drone delivery a more viable option for neighborhood-level commerce in Tulsa. Users should check the app to confirm if their specific address falls within the new coverage zones.

What happens next

Manna Air Delivery expects to launch a third base at 31st Street and Garnett Road in the coming weeks and plans to eventually extend its operating hours to seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
