 Cities worldwide are preparing for a new phase in transportation with Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). This new technology introduces electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft and vertiports, carefully designed and incorporated into city environments. This article explores the progress different cities are making in adopting AAM, highlighting the proactive measures being taken to ensure a seamless transition to this new form of transport.

In the United States, the Dallas-Fort Worth region and Houston are among the early adopters, with collaborations involving notable players like Uber Elevate and NASA. Similarly, London is spearheading efforts in Europe through initiatives like the Future Flight Challenge, while in Asia, Shanghai and Singapore are making significant headway with innovative projects such as a floating vertiport. Over in Latin America, Sao Paulo is leveraging its existing network of heliports as a stepping stone for AAM infrastructure.

Vertiports: The Future of Urban Air Mobility and Advanced Air Mobility

Vertiports: The Future of Urban Air Mobility and Advanced Air Mobility

Vertiports are specialized facilities that enable the operation of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in urban and suburban areas. These innovative hubs serve as the backbone of the emerging field of urban air mobility (UAM) and advanced air mobility (AAM), revolutionizing how people travel within and between cities. Vertiports are gaining traction as urban areas become increasingly congested and the demand for efficient transportation solutions rises.
