Taking NYC Travel to New Heights: The Reality of Flying Taxis by 2025!
Hey there, travel friendsss! 🚖✈️
Remember those sci-fi movies where taxis whizzed above busy city streets?
Well, they're about to become a reality, and NYC might be one of the first cities to welcome this game-changing mode of transportation!
Let’s dive deep into what this means for travelers like you and me.
It’s Not Just Uber on the Roads Anymore
You might have seen my recent blog post. Ohio’s $500 million investment into a production facility designed for flying taxis! This move brings the futuristic dream of electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles (eVTOLs) closer to everyday life.
The Power Players Behind the Skies
As I mentioned in my previous blog post, Joby Aviation is taking the lead in this air-taxi race. Joby isn’t the only one in this game, big players like United Airlines are joining with manufacturers to make this vision a reality. And if you're wondering about the tech behind it, Wing, a brainchild of Google, has already utilized eVTOLs for package deliveries. Joby, which acquired Uber Elevate in late 2020, is gearing up to roll out its ride-sharing services by 2025. They’re not alone in the skies; partnerships with giants like Toyota, Delta Air Lines, and Intel are set to bolster the future of aerial transportation.
So, What Does This Mean for Travelers?
Imagine skipping the NYC traffic and literally soaring straight to your destination!
As flying taxis get ready to take off, we, the travelers, stand to benefit immensely. Faster commutes, IG worthy aerial views, and the thrill of being part of a futuristic travel experience.
NYC in 2025? It promises to be an exhilarating ride!
Safe Travels!
