Eve Air Mobility are partnering with Sydney-based startup Alt Air and Skyports to bring a commercial eVTOL network to Australia.
The three companies will collaborate to develop sustainable infrastructure that will make air taxis viable transport in Queensland and New South Wales. With Brisbane set to host the Olympic Games in 2032, Eve believe Australia provides the ideal environment to build vertiports and develop systems for ground operations, route planning, and airspace integration. Johann Bordais, Chief Executive Officer at Eve Air Mobility, said:
Through this collaboration, we are laying the foundation for a world-class eVTOL ecosystem in Australia. New South Wales and Queensland present an incredible opportunity to deliver sustainable, quiet, and efficient urban air mobility solutions that will benefit residents, businesses, and international visitors, especially as we look toward the opening of Western Sydney International Airport and the global stage of the Brisbane 2032 Games.
The consortium is prioritising development on potential high-demand routes, including Western Sydney Airport to central Sydney. Aaron Shaw, Managing Director at Alt Air, added:
Our work with Eve Air Mobility and Skyports underscores our shared commitment to building meaningful aviation innovation in Australia. Together, we are designing an eVTOL network that will significantly improve connectivity and set a benchmark for advanced air mobility worldwide.
Eve have previously signed agreements with the government of Bahrain for developing commercial eVTOL service across the Middle Eastern country. Rivals in the space, including Archer, Joby, and Vertical, are in the process of designing potential air taxi networks in metropolises including Dubai, Miami, and New York.
