Landing infrastructure
A connected infrastructure network is a key enabler for the deployment of urban air mobility services. Skyports are the first to market in securing, designing, building and owning passenger and cargo vertiports in the world’s major cities.
London is home to Skyports and as Europe’s only megacity with a population of nearly 10 million and fifth largest metropolitan economy in the world, it is anticipated to be one of the largest markets for urban air mobility.
Los Angeles is the world’s most congested city and its notorious traffic problem begs for new solutions. LA is widely considered to be amongst the first adopter cities of urban air mobility services.
Singapore is a clear pioneer in the urban air mobility sector and are currently developing their own automated unmanned traffic management (UTM) systems in support of passenger taxis and urban drone deliveries.
