Air taxi to replace cars?
Air taxis are gaining popularity. They will soon change the nature of travel dramatically, taking the well-heeled off the road. These taxis will replace cars for travel within the range of modern drones capable of carrying passengers.
For longer distances that call for travel by plane, air taxis will shuttle the corporate travellers. The major impact would be on the economics of high-speed rail projects.
High-speed rail competes with air travel for relatively short distances. To travel by plane, travelling to the airport itself is time-consuming.
