Air Taxi flying starts in India from now: Service available in these cities

Air Taxi: India has already overtaken even the developing countries by achieving huge levels in several sectors. For this reason, today the whole world is looking towards India, and amidst this development, India, which is on the verge of another revolution, is ready to provide Air Taxi service.

Yes, once upon a time an airplane or helicopter was a distant thing for many people. But, now helicopters and airplanes are also available for rent. India has changed to that extent. As part of this change, air taxi service will start in India. Through this, people will be able to travel by sky through air taxis instead of auto and other taxis.

Air Taxi in India: InterGlobe Enterprises Company and American Archer Aviation have joined hands to realize India’s Flying Car Dream Project. The two companies are said to have signed an agreement for this task, and the alliance is said to provide flying car services by 2026. What is special is that these taxis will take the style of a mixture of both airplane and helicopter.

It is said that this service will be available in the same way as how you book a car on Uber or Ola to get from one place to another quickly. For this reason, the company has referred to it as Air Taxi. As a result people can avail this service easily. Above all, this is an electric powered air taxi, which will solve the problem of traffic jams and air pollution in major cities of the country.

These flying vehicles are called EVTOL (Electric Vertical Take-off and Landing) vehicles. These will not only take off vertically like a helicopter but also land vertically. As a result, airplanes can land anywhere independently without the need for runways. Just one open space is enough for this. One thing to note is that the air taxi is capable of carrying four passengers at a time and five people including the pilot.

With this, you can travel up to 100 miles on a single full charge. It is also known that a total of more than 200 air taxis have been decided to be deployed in India. It is known that in the first phase this air taxi service will start in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. After this, the service will be launched in other major cities of India.

That means the service is expected to be launched in cities like Chennai, Hyderabad and Cochin; the company has received Federal Aviation Administration certification to begin testing EVTOL aircraft in the US. It also signed a memorandum of understanding with the Abu Dhabi Investment Office last month to start its service in the United Arab Emirates in 2026.

Air taxis benefits: As these taxis fly in the sky, it usually takes a long time to reach the destination due to heavy traffic in other metros including Bengaluru. This means that if it takes 60 minutes to 90 minutes to reach a particular area of Delhi by road, these taxis will take only 7 minutes to cover the same 17 mile area.
