Electric Air Taxi Company to Connect Five Locations in the San Francisco Bay Area
SANTA CLARA, Calif.—A Silicon Valley-based electric air taxi company is seeking to revolutionize the way people move from city to city. Its plan is to use electric air taxis, and its goal is to cut down the travel time across the most congested cities in the world.
The company plans to provide flights to air taxi ports in Napa, San Jose, Oakland, and Livermore.
The press release states that the air taxi will replace one-to-two-hour drives with 10-to-20-minute flights and will be cost-competitive with ground transportation, although no dollar estimate was given.
Partnering with Kilroy, a leading U.S. landlord and developer, the company plans to anchor the taxi network in South San Francisco at Oyster Point, according to the press release. It has proposed that a sportive be built at Kilroy’s 50-acre waterfront campus in the middle of the Bay Area biotech industry.
The sportive could open as soon as 2025 and will be part of a mobility hub that will also have electric ferry service for all companies at Kilroy’s Oyster Point campus.
