There will soon be flying taxis, just like from science fiction movies. The Japanese airline ANA and a U.S. company will fly air taxis at the 2025 World Expo. Pilots will follow air traffic rules. The five-seat, all-electric taxi will take off and land like a helicopter. It can fly as far as 241 kilometers. It has a top speed of 321kph.
The taxis are environmentally friendly. People can lower their carbon footprint. Japan is a great place to test the taxis because 92% of people live in cities. ANA has 70 years of safe and reliable flights. It said the taxis will let people "travel rapidly, and sustainably, from an international airport to a downtown location".
