The Qatari Ministry of Transport has revealed plans to test the services of electric air taxis and delivery planes in early 2025. 

The Ministry has applied for all the necessary approvals with Qatari bodies concerned to go ahead with test runs.

This step will contribute to supporting the performance of Qatar’s transportation sector by introducing the new concept of air mobility, which uses the latest global technologies and artificial intelligence (AI), thereby enhancing the public transit system’s integration, coherence, sustainability, and eco-friendliness. 

For the Ministry, achieving the goals of the Third Qatar National Development Strategy (NDS3) is also front and center. NDS3 focuses on benefiting from advanced technologies, and achieving sustainable development and economic diversification, let alone boosting Qatar’s leading global position on the transportation map, leading to achieving the pillars of the Qatar National Vision 2030.
