Uber Air Taxi Service: Know Booking Method, Timing, Availability Date and More

Imagine, when you try to book a cab on your mobile, two options suddenly pop up, road taxi or air taxi! And instead of wasting time sitting in traffic jams, you can reach your destination directly by air. Dubai is going to make this future a reality.

A fully electric air taxi service may be launched in Dubai by the end of this year. The most interesting thing is that this flying taxi can be booked through the popular ride-hailing app Uber. That is, the same app through which you used to call a car on the road will provide the air taxi option.

How to book an air taxi?

The booking process will be very easy.
1. Open the app and enter the destination.
2. If air taxi service is available on that route, then the ‘air taxi’ option will automatically appear.
3. The entire journey will be completed with a single booking.

First, you will be taken by road to a specific take-off point. From there, you will fly by air taxi and land near the destination, then you will be taken by road to the final destination. The entire process will be under one ticket and one app.

What will this air taxi be like?

Fully electric (eVTOL) aircraft
Capacity to carry four passengers at a time
Each flight will be operated by a licensed commercial pilot
Comfortable seats and large windows in the cabin, so that you can enjoy the view of Dubai from the sky
Six special propellers, which are capable of vertical take-off and landing

It is also quite powerful in terms of speed, with a maximum speed of about 200 miles per hour (about 321 km). It can fly up to about 100 miles (about 160 km) on a single charge. It will have multiple modern safety systems to ensure safe travel within the city.

New Horizons in Urban Mobility

The launch of this service could bring a major change to Dubai’s transportation system. It will create a direct connection between land and air, providing a new solution to save time in the busy metropolis.
