Falcon Aviation has signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) with Eve Air Mobility for up to 35 eVTOL aircraft to introduce eVTOL touristic flights from Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai.

Deliveries are expected to take place in 2026. Eve and Falcon have also agreed to work together with local stakeholders and authorities to support developing the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) ecosystem for the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Captain Ramandeep Oberoi, Chief Operating Officer of Falcon, said: “We are ecstatic to partner with Eve and be the first operator of eVTOL in Dubai & the MENA region. The launch of this concept fully aligns with the Smart Dubai vision and will contribute to positioning Dubai as a global leader in sustainable Urban Air Mobility transportation. Falcon is actively engaged in Urban Air Mobility emergence and committed to delivering an effective and sustainable new urban transportation mode and providing the community with better and faster solutions. We are particularly proud to take a new step in the UAE, in a project that will be revolutionary for sustainable urban mobility.”

Andre Stein, co-CEO of Eve, commented: “We are thrilled about partnering with Falcon and having the immense opportunity to enable the future urban mobility in the United Arab Emirates and launch eVTOL flights in Dubai. This is a massive challenge for both companies, which will help to position Dubai as a leader in the urban air mobility market. Eve’s global experience, which spans different regions across the globe, will surely benefit the achievement of this project.”

Eve believes the collaboration reinforces the company’s commitment to safely enable the global UAM ecosystem by providing an agonistic and holistic portfolio of solutions.
