Dubai residents could soon find air taxis listed alongside cars on the Uber app, as the city prepares to roll out all-electric aerial rides later this year. The move would allow passengers to book a flight as easily as ordering a standard ride, signalling a shift towards integrated ground and air transport within a single platform.
The new feature, branded as Uber Air, will appear within the existing app interface. Users will enter their destination as usual. If the journey qualifies for an aerial option, the app will display an air taxi choice alongside regular transport services. Once selected, the system will manage the full journey through one booking. This includes a premium car transfer to the take-off point, the flight itself and onward ground transport to the final destination.
