Systems and methods for managing drones using standby zones are described. An aircraft (e.g., drone or UAV) standby zone management system manages drones in three-dimensional zones, each zone having a specific elevation (or height), longitude, and latitude. For example, a number of drones can service or otherwise travel through a specific airspace or geographical location (e.g., an area surrounding a warehouse). Before executing flight plans, the drones remain in a standby mode, where they await instructions. The system manages these standby zones, moving the drones from zone to zone as they remain in their standby mode of operation.
