UrbanLink Air Mobility, an AAM operator based in South Florida, has entered into a partnership agreement with Skyway Technologies for the joint placement of vertiports in key U.S. and Caribbean markets.

By joining forces with Skyway, UrbanLink is set to accelerate the deployment of essential vertiport infrastructure needed for its Lilium Jets and the broader AAM industry.

UrbanLink and Skyway plan to release more details on specific vertiport routes and locations in South Florida and Puerto Rico over the next six months.

This partnership marks UrbanLink’s second collaboration with an established vertiport developer, underscoring the company’s commitment to building a robust support network for AAM operations.

Ed Wegel, Founder and Chairman of UrbanLink, said; “Collaboration between eVTOL operators and vertiport developers ensures that vertiport designs meet operational needs and enhance the customer experience. In order to finance and build the vertiports needed to support the AAM industry, it is crucial to have multiple partners. We are impressed with Skyway’s understanding of our business and their commitment to delivering well-designed, safe, and efficient vertiports in the U.S. and Caribbean.”

Clifford Cruz, CEO of Skyway, said; “Our partnership with UrbanLink is advancing the industry towards launching operations in the United States.

“We are committed to providing outstanding operator services and introducing innovative customer experiences at our vertiports, promoting the adoption of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) in the most safe and secure manner.”
