The agreement positions private membership travel as an early use case for U.S. East Coast seaglider operations from 2027.

The collaboration assessed how Regent’s all-electric Seaglider vessels could improve transport across Scotland’s coastal communities by cutting emissions and journey times.

The Viceroy can carry up to 12 passengers or 1,600 kgs of cargo and is capable of speeds up to 300 kilometres per hour (180mph) for routes up to 300 km. It is expected to be a great fit for UAE missions.
