Description
Description | Uber has announced a strategic alliance with Joby Aviation, a manufacturer of electric air taxis, to allow users to book helicopter flights directly from their app. The service will be available in the most densely populated cities worldwide, focusing on fast connections to airports. The integration follows Joby's acquisition of Blade Air Mobility, which currently operates turbine helicopters but plans to transition to electric eVTOL aircraft. The project involves the development and deployment of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles using Distributed Electric Propulsion (PED) technology for silent, safe, and efficient urban air mobility. |
