Eve’s Urban ATM solution will play a critical role in helping to transport eVTOL passengers quickly and safely in densely populated cities in the future.”

“Urban Air Mobility has the transformative potential to reshape urban living by making travel faster, cleaner, and more efficient while addressing the growing challenges of modern cities. At JetSetGo, we are committed to driving this change in India through our partnership with Eve Air Mobility,” said Kanika Tekriwal, CEO and Co-Founder, JetSetGo. “By leveraging Eve’s cutting-edge Vector Urban ATM platform, we aim to enable the seamless and safe operation of eVTOL aircraft in the future. This technology is vital for tackling issues like traffic congestion, wasted hours, worsening air pollution, and the need for eco-friendly travel solutions. Furthermore, our efforts focus on ensuring that UAM solutions are quiet, safe, and widely embraced by communities. Through these innovations, we aim to improve urban life and position India as a global leader in the future of aviation.”

As part of the agreement, the two companies will collaborate in a number of different ways including promoting Urban Air Mobility in India as JetSetGo explores new opportunities in urban air mobility.
