Taking you the extra mile

Advanced Air Mobility


Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) is a new concept in aviation that uses the latest technologies and aircraft designs to create an air taxi system for short and very short-haul air travel between and within urban environments.

The catalysts for this promised revolution in air travel are threefold:

  • New powertrain technology using hybrid-electric or fully electric (battery) power
  • New developments in vertical take-off lift propulsion systems
  • A new breed of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) is designing new Electric Vertical take-off and Landing aircraft (eVTOL) to utilise these new technologies for short-haul and urban air travel. Source: SMG Consulting

The Urban Air Taxi

Experience JetSetGo's boldest vision for the future of transportation with its cutting-edge fleet of eVTOL aircraft. Our commitment to Urban Air Mobility (UAM) transforms how you travel within cities, addressing the challenges of congestion and ground-based transport delays.

This concept envisions the employment of fleets of eVTOL air taxis connecting vital nodal points and Vertiports in both public and private (corporate) locations to overcome the challenges of travelling across cities with high levels of congestion and travel delays in ground-based transport systems.

Most evangelists for this concept and many leaders amongst the new OEMs promise a 'democratisation' of air mobility within the urban environment. This will provide easily accessible and frequent services and, crucially, at a very affordable price. In addition, these services will be virtually emissions-free with the employment of electric-powered aircraft.

The Aviation Landscape in India

With a drive for modernisation and expansion, India's airport network is growing fast and supporting the rapid development of commercial aviation. Alongside scheduled airline services, on-demand private jet and air taxi services are growing as India's high-net-worth and business communities seek more convenient and time-saving air travel options outside the traditional hub-and-spoke and budget airline networks.

The UDAN Regional Connectivity Scheme

The UDAN scheme aims to incentivise airlines to launch services connecting airports and communities with limited or no existing air services. Its goal is to fill gaps in regional connectivity across India.

This program's existence is a potential bridge for applying AAM technologies and small aircraft designs to reduce costs, increase services, and deliver low-emission aviation across regionally diverse natural environments.

The Long-Term Outlook

The long-term outlook for aviation is very positive. Forecasts illustrate that demand for air travel in all its forms will continue to grow rapidly over the next decade. This growth presents a significant opportunity for Urban Air Mobility and Regional Air Mobility to build on this trend and make air travel the preferred mode of transport for Indian consumers.

The AAM Market Opportunity

Urban Air Mobility

The rapid urbanisation of India's population and the growth of major tier-1 cities are creating enormous pressure on existing transportation services and infrastructure. Traffic congestion, increased journey times, and high pollution levels are creating demand for the early adoption of AAM technologies for a new era of urban air mobility solutions.

The UAM Solution

UAM envisages a network of Vertiports built in key business and residential locations and at key transport nodes across major urban areas, both downtown and suburbs. Connecting these Vertiports will be operators flying air taxi services either on-demand or as regular shuttles. With high utilisation rates and attractive fares, these services will offer accessible and viable alternatives to road and transit system travel times at affordable prices.

Regional Air Mobility

Connectivity between India's tier 2 and 3 cities often needs to catch up to the pace of economic growth in India's regions. Reliance on the road network or slow and crowded train services impedes the economic and social integration of smaller towns and communities, while commercial airlines find it difficult to make such markets commercially viable on short-haul regional routes. This gap in air services can be addressed through Regional Air Mobility services using new AAM aircraft designs for both commercially and environmentally sustainable services

The UDAN RCS Context

The Indian government recognised the need for enhanced regional air services linking tier 2 and 3 towns and cities and remote regions through the introduction of the UDAN Regional Connectivity Scheme.
The next generation of hybrid electric-powered small regional aircraft offers a new option to fill the gaps in UDAN services. Traditional airlines have struggled to establish commercially viable services with larger aircraft and many seats to fill. The economics of operating smaller hybrid aircraft make such services viable and competitively priced, creating a real alternative to road and rail travel.

Use Cases and Missions

The Use Case Framework

The rapid urbanisation of India's population and the growth of major tier-1 cities are creating enormous pressure on existing transportation services and infrastructure. Traffic congestion, increased journey times, and high pollution levels are creating demand for the early adoption of AAM technologies for a new era of urban air mobility solutions.

Mission Profiles

In addition to route-based use cases based on available and future infrastructure development, JetSetGo identifies several mission profiles, from time-sensitive passenger and light cargo transportation to widely available medevac services that support India's burgeoning healthcare industry.

Optimising the Fleet Mix

JetSetGo believes a mixed fleet of AAM aircraft types will be needed to meet the needs identified in the range of use cases and missions. The optimal fleet mix will likely comprise short-range electric battery-powered eVTOL aircraft and longer-range hybrid-powered regional eSTOL aircraft.
