Remember in aviation takeoff is optional, landing is mandatory.

The article says UPS ordered some to speed up air delivery to rural areas without airports. So they are likely planning on landing at some rural hub.
Our company HQ used to have a helipad so the CEO didn't have to sit in traffic on his way to and from the airport. No holding pattern - just a guy with a flag to make sure the area was clear.
