The vertiport will serve as a key node for early vertiport network planning and demonstrations, and will support Vertical Aerospace's demo flights and test key procedures ahead of commercial launch.

Skyports will design, construct and operate vertiports to provide critical infrastructure at key locations, while RTA will oversee and regulate AAM services and Joby will operate eVTOL air taxis.

Go ahead has been given for vertiport development at four Dubai airports. These initial locations will support high speed, zero-emissions connectivity across some of the country's most popular and populous areas.
