Dubai’s futuristic public transport system looks set to become a reality much sooner than we may think.
We now know that Dubai’s first flying taxi station, also known as a vertiport, is now under construction and it will be at Dubai International Airport (DXB) and will be completed by 2026.
His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defence, and Chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai revealed that plans are now underway on his official X account on Tuesday November 12.
DXB’s vertiport will be the first of four to be built in the initial stage which will allow for speedy, convenient journeys between key points in the emirate without the need to hit the road.
The initiative is set to make Dubai the world’s first city to offer urban aerial transport through an advanced aerial taxi take-off and landing network. More
