Joby

Virgin Atlantic and Joby announced a partnership to offer air-taxi rides via the airline's app or website, enabling customers to travel from London Heathrow to central London in 8 minutes. The service, expected to cost $130–$160 per seat, will also expand to Manchester Airport and Leeds. Joby's electric vertical-takeoff-and-landing aircraft aim to operate over cities with reduced noise.

Archer and Joby are competing to make flying cars a reality and are involved in a complex legal battle that has spanned half a year. The two companies are leaders in the electric air taxi industry. The battle is taking place in California.
