A thermally insulated package 100 for transporting a temperature sensitive payload by unmanned aerial vehicle. The thermally insulated package comprises a payload retention volume 150, at least one layer of insulation 121, 122 surrounding the payload retention volume 150 and an outer casing 110 enclosing the at least one layer of insulation 121, 122 and the payload retention volume 150. The thermally insulated package 100 is shaped to reduce drag in flight by having an aerodynamic shape, particularly in a nose section 130 and optionally a tail section 140. The thermally insulated package 100 may be particularly suitable as a single use packaging for transporting temperature sensitive goods to remote locations. A packaging blank 200 and an unmanned aerial vehicle comprising the thermally insulated package 100 are also disclosed.
