The urban mobility
crisis intensifies globally. Traffic congestion in major cities costs
approximately $1.1 trillion annually in lost productivity across developed
economies alone. A person spending 90 minutes daily in traffic across a 40-year
career literally wastes 7,500 hours—nearly one full year—sitting in vehicles.
Beyond personal time loss, congestion strains logistics networks, delays
emergency services, degrades air quality, and undermines economic
competitiveness. Traditional infrastructure solutions—building more roads,
expanding public transit—progress far too slowly for rapidly growing cities.
Road construction requires 5-15 years; transit system expansion requires 10-20
years. Meanwhile congestion accelerates annually. Urban Air Mobility offers the
possibility of dramatically expanding transportation capacity within existing
geography by utilizing previously unused three-dimensional airspace above
cities.
The concept operates
deceptively simply. Electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft (eVTOL) take
off and land without requiring runways, enabling use of rooftops, parking lots,
and dedicated vertiports. They fly routes above traffic, reducing commute times
60-80% compared to ground transport for many origin-destination pairs. Battery
electric propulsion eliminates emissions. Advanced autonomy technologies
promise eventual driverless operation, eliminating labor as aircraft mature
operationally. The combination creates transportation fundamentally different
from existing modes—faster, cleaner, more efficient, and potentially more
equitable if implemented with social considerations.
How Urban Air
Mobility Actually Works 🔧
eVTOL aircraft operate
through multiple simultaneous technologies converging toward viability. First,
battery technology has reached critical capability. Modern lithium-ion
batteries, improving annually, achieve energy density enabling aircraft
carrying 4-6 passengers for 100-150 kilometers per charge. Battery technology
continues advancing rapidly—solid-state batteries entering commercial
production within 2-3 years promise 40-50% improved range. For urban commuting
distances typically under 50 kilometers, battery technology proves entirely
adequate.
Second, electric motor
technology enables efficient propulsion. Electric motors convert electrical
energy to mechanical power with 85-90% efficiency, compared to 20-30% for
combustion engines. This fundamental thermodynamic advantage means eVTOL
aircraft consume one-third the energy of equivalent combustion-powered
aircraft, translating directly to reduced operational costs and improved
economics.
Third, advanced
materials enable lightweight aircraft construction. Carbon fiber composites,
titanium alloys, and advanced aluminum structures reduce weight dramatically
compared to historical aircraft materials. Lighter vehicles require less energy
for flight, extending range and capacity.
Fourth, autonomous
flight technologies derived from decades of drone development enable safe
operations. While current aircraft employ human pilots, the technological
foundation for eventual autonomous operation exists. Advanced sensors,
collision avoidance systems, and flight control automation provide safety
redundancy exceeding manned commercial aviation standards.
Fifth, regulatory
frameworks are rapidly developing. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in
the United States, European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in Europe, and
corresponding authorities worldwide are establishing rules for eVTOL operations.
This regulatory clarity, emerging as of 2024-2025, enables companies to
transition from experimental aircraft to commercial operations.
The result of these
converging technologies: aircraft that are safe, efficient, cost-effective, and
operationally feasible within the near term. The transition from concept to
working services is not merely theoretically possible—it's actively occurring through
commercial trials in multiple cities.
Global Urban Air
Mobility Leaders 🌍
Singapore has emerged
as perhaps the most advanced Urban Air Mobility deployment. The city-state,
facing acute land scarcity and needing efficient airport connectivity, began
trials of eVTOL services in 2022. The Joby Aviation aircraft underwent multiple
operational trials connecting Singapore Changi Airport with downtown Singapore,
demonstrating feasibility of commercial routes. Singapore's investment in eVTOL
infrastructure—vertiport construction, regulatory development, fleet
procurement—positions it as the world's most advanced Urban Air Mobility
ecosystem.
Dubai, seeking to
distinguish itself as a technological innovation hub, has been aggressively
advancing Urban Air Mobility. The city approved eVTOL aircraft for operation,
conducted multiple demonstration flights at major events, and contracted for
comprehensive air taxi fleet deployment. Dubai's vision involves complete Urban
Air Mobility integration by 2030, positioning the city as a global leader in
this emerging sector.
Los Angeles, dealing
with perhaps the world's most infamous traffic congestion, has contracted with
Archer Aviation and other companies for commercial eVTOL services launching in
2025-2026. The initial routes focus on airport connectivity—specifically, providing
rapid transportation between downtown LA and LAX airport, reducing a 90-minute
road journey to approximately 15 minutes. The demonstrated success of LA
services will substantially influence other North American cities' adoption.
New York City has
begun infrastructure planning for Urban Air Mobility integration. The city
commissioned vertiport construction plans for multiple locations and contracted
with operators for initial service launches. NYC's involvement proves
significant—the world's media and financial center adopting eVTOL services
dramatically accelerates adoption globally through visibility and example.
London has been
developing regulatory frameworks and infrastructure planning for Urban Air
Mobility. The UK Civil Aviation Authority developed operating standards, and
companies are positioning for initial service launches. London's approach
emphasizes safety and environmental integration, ensuring eVTOL adoption
strengthens rather than complicates existing transportation systems.
Toronto, facing
infrastructure constraints and congestion challenges, has been studying Urban
Air Mobility potential for Pearson Airport connectivity. Preliminary
assessments identified clear opportunity for eVTOL services replacing
ground-based airport transportation, addressing a major pain point in Toronto
metropolitan area mobility.
São Paulo and Mexico
City, both massive Latin American metropolitan areas facing severe congestion,
have been advancing eVTOL trials and infrastructure planning. These cities
recognize that traditional transportation solutions cannot keep pace with congestion
growth; Urban Air Mobility offers potential breakthrough alternative.
Barbados, though
smaller in scale, has recognized tourism and mobility potential of Urban Air
Mobility. Early-stage studies examined feasibility of inter-island air taxi
services and potential Bridgetown urban air mobility integration. For island
economies, air mobility offers particular advantages—eliminating ferry
constraints and bridge congestion.
Lagos possesses
enormous urban air mobility potential, yet remains less advanced in deployment
planning compared to Asian, North American, and European cities. However,
preliminary interest is emerging. Nigeria's aviation authorities, under Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), Nigerian
Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), and Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority
(NCAA), have begun
preliminary discussions about eVTOL regulatory frameworks. This regulatory
groundwork proves essential for enabling commercial operations. Additionally,
Lagos government officials have discussed Urban Air Mobility potential in media reports regarding
transportation modernization initiatives. Lagos's acute congestion challenges,
geographic constraints with multiple islands and water bodies creating natural
vertiport locations, and growing entrepreneurial technology sector position the
city favorably for Urban Air Mobility leadership once deployment planning
accelerates.
The Time Advantage:
Collapsing Commute Distances 🚀
Urban Air Mobility's
most compelling advantage involves dramatically compressed commute times.
Consider specific examples. In Toronto, traveling from downtown to Pearson
Airport by road consumes 45-90 minutes depending on traffic. An eVTOL aircraft
covers the same distance in 12-15 minutes. Over a 40-year career, this single
route improvement saves 300-400 hours—the equivalent of 7-10 weeks of time
reclaimed through a single regular commute.
For Los Angeles
residents commuting from downtown to LAX, the time advantage proves even more
dramatic. Ground transportation requires 90-150 minutes; eVTOL reduces this to
15-20 minutes. A person making this trip even twice weekly saves approximately
200 hours annually compared to ground alternatives.
New York City
commuters traveling from Manhattan to JFK or Newark airports face similar
transformations. Current ground transportation requires 60-120 minutes; eVTOL
reduces this to 10-15 minutes. For frequent business travelers making this
journey weekly, the time savings become staggering.
London commuters
traveling between central London and Gatwick or Stansted airports would
similarly experience dramatic reductions—from 60-90 minutes by car or train to
10-15 minutes by air.
In Lagos, this
advantage intensifies. The city faces such severe congestion that traveling
from Lagos Island to Murtala Muhammed Airport—a distance of approximately 30
kilometers—requires 120-200 minutes during rush hours. An eVTOL aircraft would
cover this distance in 8-12 minutes. For residents making airport trips,
business commutes across the city, or regular intercity travel, this time
transformation proves revolutionary.
The productivity
implications prove profound. Time spent commuting represents time unavailable
for professional work, personal activities, or rest. Collapsing commute times
literally returns days to workers annually—time that could be invested in
income generation, business development, or personal wellbeing. For high-income
professionals, this time value justifies substantial premium pricing for air
mobility services.
Environmental and
Energy Efficiency 🌱
Electric vertical
takeoff and landing aircraft represent a genuine environmental breakthrough
compared to road-based transportation alternatives. Battery-electric eVTOL
aircraft produce zero operational emissions. Unlike hybrid vehicles, they don't
have backup combustion engines. Unlike road vehicles, they don't generate tire
particulates or brake dust. Their environmental advantage extends beyond
eliminating tailpipe emissions.
Energy consumption
comparisons prove striking. A car carrying one person 50 kilometers requires
approximately 50-60 kilowatt-hours of energy. An eVTOL aircraft carrying four
passengers traveling the same distance requires approximately 30-40
kilowatt-hours total—meaning per-passenger energy consumption is 75% lower than
driving alone. Even compared to electric vehicles, eVTOL aircraft achieve
superior efficiency when accounting for typical vehicle occupancy rates.
The grid impact merits
attention. Large-scale eVTOL adoption would increase electrical demand,
particularly during peak evening charging periods. However, smart charging
systems can distribute charging loads across low-demand periods. Vertiports
powered by on-site solar and battery storage could operate substantially
off-grid. Vehicle-to-grid technology enables aircraft batteries to supply power
to grids during peak demand, creating bidirectional energy flow.
For cities committed
to renewable energy transition, eVTOL adoption accelerates decarbonization. A
city powering its fleet through 100% renewable electricity achieves
zero-emission transportation. This proves particularly valuable for cities like
Toronto, Vancouver, and Barbados with substantial renewable generation
capacity.
Noise reduction
represents an underappreciated environmental advantage. Modern eVTOL aircraft
produce substantially less noise than helicopters—approximately 70-75 decibels
during cruise flight, compared to 90+ decibels for helicopters. This lower
noise profile enables operations in urban areas without creating noise
pollution problems helicopters experience.
Economic
Feasibility and Pricing Reality 💰
Initial skepticism
regarding eVTOL economics focused on assumed high operational costs. However,
detailed analysis reveals economics that become increasingly favorable.
Aircraft acquisition
costs for initial commercial eVTOL vehicles range from $2-4 million per unit.
While appearing high, this compares favorably to helicopters costing $5-15
million. Battery costs, currently representing the largest component, continue
declining predictably. Industry analysts project that battery costs will drop
50% by 2030, dramatically improving economics.
Operating costs for
eVTOL aircraft are projected at $1.00-$1.50 per passenger-kilometer for early
commercial operations, declining to $0.50-$0.75 per passenger-kilometer by 2035
as technology matures. For reference, this compares to $0.30-0.50 per passenger-kilometer
for commercial aviation—notably, eVTOL achieves this efficiency despite flying
shorter distances where per-unit costs naturally trend higher.
For ride-sharing
scenarios, pricing models suggest introductory fares of $5-10 per mile,
declining to $2-4 per mile as fleets scale. For a 10-mile urban air mobility
flight, introductory pricing would be $50-100, declining to $20-40 as
operations mature. While premium compared to ground transportation, for airport
trips, emergency situations, or high-value time applications, this pricing
proves economically rational.
Joby Aviation, one of
the most advanced commercial operators, projects initial operations in Los
Angeles beginning 2025-2026 with fares approximately 3-5x ground transportation
equivalent. However, projections show fares declining to 1.5-2x ground transportation
within 5-7 years as operations scale and efficiency improves.
The critical economic
insight: eVTOL operations don't require massive subsidies or unrealistic
pricing. They operate on legitimate market economics at pricing levels wealthy
and upper-middle-class urban residents routinely pay for transportation
convenience. As technology matures and competition increases, pricing becomes
increasingly accessible to broader populations.
Infrastructure
Requirements: Vertiports and Charging 🏗️
Deploying Urban Air
Mobility requires specific infrastructure distinct from existing transportation
systems. Vertiports—dedicated aircraft landing and takeoff facilities—represent
the primary infrastructure requirement. These facilities vary substantially
based on application.
Simple vertiports
require approximately 2,000-3,000 square meters of dedicated space. A typical
city block in downtown areas or rooftop in high-density zones provides
sufficient space. Minimal infrastructure requirements include landing pad
surface (reinforced for aircraft weight), charging infrastructure, passenger
facilities (waiting areas, restrooms), and operational systems. Construction
costs range from $5-15 million for comprehensive facilities, declining as
standardized designs proliferate.
Vertiports integrate
into existing urban fabric through rooftop deployment, underutilized parking
lots, or dedicated land. Many cities possess numerous potential vertiport
locations. Toronto could utilize underused parking facilities. London could use
redundant transport infrastructure spaces. Lagos could develop vertiports on
unused rooftop space or dedicated ground facilities.
Charging
infrastructure requires access to high-capacity electrical supply—typically
480V three-phase power for depot charging. Most urban areas already possess
such capacity at facilities like parking garages, airports, or industrial
sites. Charging time ranges from 20-30 minutes for opportunity charging to 4-8
hours for full recharge. This timing aligns well with operational
patterns—aircraft charging during passenger boarding periods or overnight
enables daily deployment.
Battery swapping
represents an emerging infrastructure option. Rather than charging aircraft,
operators swap depleted batteries for charged batteries, enabling aircraft to
immediately resume operations. Swapping requires only 3-5 minutes compared to
20-30 minutes for charging. Battery swapping infrastructure needs fewer
locations than charging and enables more flexible operations, though it
requires maintaining multiple battery inventory.
Advanced research
proposes solar-powered vertiports and renewable-energy-integrated systems.
Rooftop solar panels could provide substantial vertiport energy, with grid
connection serving only gap periods. For Lagos, where solar resources prove
abundant, this model could enable relatively self-sufficient operations.
Safety and
Regulatory Framework ⚖️
Safety concerns
appropriately arise regarding flying vehicles over populated urban areas.
However, multiple factors address these concerns. Modern eVTOL aircraft
incorporate multiple redundant systems—if one motor fails, remaining motors
enable continued flight and safe landing. This redundancy exceeds safety
requirements for commercial aviation, where engine failure doesn't cause
catastrophic system loss.
Collision avoidance
systems derived from military and commercial aviation incorporate advanced
radar, LIDAR, and traffic awareness systems ensuring aircraft maintain safe
separation. As operations scale, dedicated air traffic management
systems—similar to existing systems separating commercial aircraft—coordinate
eVTOL movements preventing collision risk.
Regulatory frameworks
developed by aviation authorities worldwide establish rigorous certification
requirements. The FAA, EASA, and other authorities require extensive testing,
risk assessment, and operational procedures before approving commercial operations.
Regulatory caution reflects aviation's exemplary safety record—commercial
aviation remains the safest transportation mode measured by fatality rates per
mile.
For Lagos
specifically, aircraft operations would fall under Nigerian
Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) oversight for airspace management and Nigeria
Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) for certification and operational standards. These agencies, already
regulating commercial aviation safely, possess frameworks extensible to eVTOL
operations.
Public confidence in
safety develops through successful pilot programs. Initial operations in
Singapore, Los Angeles, London, and other cities will establish operational
track records and build confidence that Urban Air Mobility can operate safely
within existing airspace and regulatory frameworks.
Integration with
Existing Urban Systems 🔗
Urban Air Mobility
succeeds not in isolation but as integrated component of comprehensive
transportation networks. eVTOL aircraft optimally serve airport connectivity,
interurban commuting across geographic barriers, and emergency services.
Ground-based transit continues serving mass transit and local circulation
functions. The combination creates optimized multimodal systems.
Consider Los Angeles
after eVTOL deployment. Typical commuter takes metro to vertiport, boards air
taxi for airport trip (15 minutes), arrives at terminal with time for relaxed
check-in. The combined journey proves faster, more reliable, and requires less
driving stress than current ground-only alternatives. This integration makes
eVTOL viable—vertiports connecting to transit systems, not requiring
first/last-mile driving.
Toronto's integration
could involve transit connection to downtown vertiports, enabling seamless
Pearson Airport access through combined transit-air transportation. London
could similarly integrate central vertiports with the underground system,
creating efficient airport connectivity combining transit and air modes.
Lagos could develop
similar integration. Vertiports located near LAMATA transit terminals or
LASTMA-managed transportation hubs create multimodal connections. A Lagos
resident traveling from outer mainland to an Ikoyi business meeting could take
BRT to vertiport, board air taxi for rapid downtown crossing, then connect to
terminal transit—complete door-to-door journey in 45 minutes versus 120+
minutes through ground-only routes.
Smart systems
coordinate these multimodal journeys. Trip planning apps provide integrated
routing across transit, air, and ground transportation modes. Unified ticketing
systems enable seamless payment. Real-time systems keep travelers informed
across all journey legs.
Addressing Equity
and Access Concerns ⚖️
A legitimate concern
exists regarding Urban Air Mobility exacerbating transportation inequality. If
eVTOL services remain accessible only to wealthy populations, they essentially
create premium transportation for affluent residents while congestion continues
affecting working-class populations relying on ground transportation.
However, this outcome
isn't inevitable. Policy choices determine equity implications. Cities
implementing Urban Air Mobility alongside congestion pricing, preferential
ground transit investment, and strategic pricing frameworks can structure
systems benefiting broader populations.
Singapore's model
specifically addresses equity. Government subsidized initial eVTOL fares for
all residents, not merely wealthy travelers. This approach ensured that the
transportation innovation benefited entire populations rather than creating
transportation stratification.
Barbados, as a smaller
island economy, could implement governmental coordination ensuring eVTOL
services serve diverse populations. The island's health system, government
employees, and public sector could utilize air services for rapid inter-island
or cross-island travel, with broader population access through shared-use
models.
Lagos must explicitly
plan for equitable access. Rather than allowing eVTOL services to become luxury
amenities for foreign business travelers and wealthy residents, strategic
planning could ensure working-class Lagosians benefit. Government can subsidize
particular routes serving lower-income populations, provide vouchers for
lower-income travelers, or operate public air taxi services complementing
private operators.
Case Study:
Singapore's eVTOL Leadership 📍
Singapore exemplifies
comprehensive Urban Air Mobility integration. The city-state's specific
advantage involves acute land scarcity creating desperate need for innovative
transportation. Singapore's government recognized eVTOL potential and invested
proactively in ecosystem development.
Initial trials began
2022 with Joby Aviation conducting demonstration flights. These trials weren't
mere publicity—they involved rigorous operational testing, regulatory
coordination with Singapore's Civil Aviation Authority, and infrastructure
development. Specific routes connected Changi Airport with downtown Singapore
and with Marina Bay Financial District, addressing major city connectivity
needs.
Singapore contracted
for commercial fleet deployment, with initial service launches projected for
2024-2025. The government invested in vertiport infrastructure at strategic
locations, recognizing that infrastructure represents the primary constraint to
scaling eVTOL services.
Regulatory frameworks
established clear standards for aircraft certification, pilot licensing,
passenger safety, and operational procedures. Singapore's regulatory rigor
inspired confidence among operators and travelers—showing that eVTOL operations
can meet aviation safety standards.
The economic model
involved phased pricing—initial high fares declining as operations scaled.
Government subsidies during initial phases ensured broader population access
rather than restricting services to wealthy travelers. This social equity
approach differentiated Singapore's model from purely market-driven
implementations.
Singapore's experience
demonstrates critical lessons: comprehensive eVTOL adoption requires government
engagement, infrastructure investment, regulatory development, and explicit
attention to equity. Isolated private operator initiatives without governmental
support struggle to scale; coordinated ecosystem approaches succeed.
Future
Advancements: What's Coming Next 🚀
Urban Air Mobility
continues advancing rapidly beyond current first-generation aircraft. Hydrogen
fuel cell aircraft currently under development promise 2-3x the range of
battery-electric aircraft, addressing the limited-range constraint affecting
current designs. Hydrogen propulsion produces only water vapor—zero emissions
even more complete than battery-electric aircraft.
Advanced autonomy
technologies will eventually enable crewless operations, substantially reducing
labor costs and enabling 24/7 operations without pilot fatigue constraints.
While initial commercial operations employ qualified pilots, full autonomy
represents the industry roadmap within 10-15 years.
Distributed electric
propulsion—numerous smaller electric motors rather than conventional fewer
larger motors—improves efficiency and enables novel aircraft configurations.
Optimized designs could achieve 25-30% better efficiency than current
first-generation aircraft.
Modular aircraft
design enables standardized components allowing rapid scaling and customization
for specific applications. This manufacturing approach could eventually reduce
aircraft costs to $1-2 million, dramatically improving operator economics.
Urban air traffic
management systems will evolve from simple ground-based coordination to
sophisticated autonomous systems similar to commercial aviation air traffic
control. These systems could manage thousands of aircraft simultaneously over
major cities, enabling truly large-scale Urban Air Mobility ecosystems.
For Lagos, these
advancements mean that current planning decisions position the city favorably
for operating increasingly capable, efficient, and affordable air mobility
systems over coming decades.
FAQ: Your Urban Air
Mobility Questions Answered ❓
When can I actually
book a flying taxi in my city?
Current projections suggest commercial services beginning 2025-2026 in major
global cities including Los Angeles, Singapore, Dubai, and London. Other major
cities will follow within 2-5 years. For cities like Toronto and Lagos actively
planning infrastructure, services could launch by 2026-2028.
How much will
flying taxis cost? Initial
pricing projected at $5-10 per mile (approximately $50-100 for typical 10-mile
urban journeys). This will decline to $2-4 per mile within 5-7 years as
technology matures and competition increases. While premium relative to ground
transportation initially, pricing becomes more competitive as scale improves.
Are flying taxis
safe? eVTOL aircraft
incorporate multiple redundant systems ensuring safety exceeding commercial
aviation standards. Regulatory approval requires rigorous testing and
certification. Safety records from initial operations in Singapore and upcoming
LA operations will establish operational safety data.
Will flying taxis
eliminate road congestion?
Completely eliminating congestion is unrealistic—eVTOL capacity remains limited
compared to mass ground transit. However, air mobility addressing airport trips
and premium commuting could remove 10-15% of peak traffic, providing meaningful
congestion relief. Optimal results require eVTOL integration with improved
ground transit, not replacement of existing systems.
What about noise
pollution? Modern eVTOL
aircraft produce 70-75 decibels during flight—substantially quieter than
helicopters (90+ decibels) and comparable to busy road traffic. Strategic
routing and flight path management minimize noise impacts on residential areas.
What happens in bad
weather? eVTOL operations
suspend during severe weather, similar to helicopter operations. Advanced
weather forecasting enables predictable suspension periods. Redundancy in
ground transportation options maintains mobility during weather-related air
suspension.
Can eVTOL services
serve lower-income populations?
Yes, through intentional policy design. Governmental subsidies, public operator
models, and strategic pricing can ensure equitable access. Singapore's approach
demonstrates that eVTOL systems can serve diverse populations through policy
choices.
How many passengers
does an eVTOL aircraft carry?
Current designs carry 4-6 passengers. Some advanced designs under development
aim for 20-30 seat capacity, enabling mass eVTOL operations. Capacity increases
will dramatically improve economics and accessibility.
Urban Air Mobility
represents a genuine inflection point in transportation history. Unlike many
futuristic concepts that remain speculative, eVTOL aircraft are entering
commercial operation now. Companies are deploying fleets. Regulatory frameworks
are finalizing. Infrastructure is being constructed. The question isn't whether
Urban Air Mobility will transform city transportation—it's whether your city
will lead that transformation or follow belatedly.
For cities like
Toronto facing airport access challenges, London managing congestion within
existing geography, Los Angeles struggling with sprawl-generated commuting, and
Lagos confronting gridlock amplified by geographic constraints, eVTOL adoption
represents breakthrough opportunity. Not a solution to all transportation
challenges—other modes serve different functions optimally—but a transformative
solution for specific high-value routes where time premium justifies technology
adoption.
Lagos possesses
particular advantage. The city's severe congestion creates compelling
motivation. Geographic constraints with islands and water bodies create natural
vertiport locations. Growing technology sector and entrepreneurial population
create local implementation capacity. Most importantly, urgent transportation
crisis creates political will for innovative solutions. Lagos could position
itself as an African Urban Air Mobility leader, attracting technology
investment, creating skilled employment, and establishing itself as a
forward-thinking global city.
The infrastructure
decisions made today—vertiport locations, regulatory framework design,
integration planning with existing transit—determine whether Urban Air Mobility
serves as premium service for wealthy populations or transforms transportation
broadly. Cities making these decisions thoughtfully will build superior
mobility systems. Those postponing decisions will eventually implement Urban
Air Mobility less effectively after missing critical planning windows.
