There will soon be flying taxis. Many of us grew up watching science fiction movies with these. The Japanese airline ANA and a U.S. tech start-up called Joby Aviation will fly air taxis at the 2025 World Expo in Osaka. They are currently building the taxis. They will need to follow air traffic rules. They will also need to train flying taxi pilots. The five-seat, all-electric taxi will take off and land vertically. It will fly as far as 241 kilometers and have a top speed of 321kph.
Joby said the taxis are environmentally friendly. People can reduce their carbon footprint. It said Japan was a great place to test the taxis because 92 per cent of the population live in towns and cities. The president of ANA said the airline has 70 years of safe and reliable flights. He said it was good that customers have "the option to travel rapidly, and sustainably, from an international airport to a downtown location".
