Joby the Electric Helicopter Wants to Take You to JFK
Briefly

Joby's electric helicopter aims to provide a quick, emissions-free alternative for New Yorkers heading to JFK, promising travel times under seven minutes despite regulatory hurdles.
Mayor Eric Adams announced plans for an electric helicopter service to JFK, highlighting the inefficiencies of current transportation methods, with a vision for a faster, quieter solution.
While Joby envisions flying New Yorkers swiftly to JFK, it faces a major hurdle: FAA certification, with a projected launch potentially not until late 2025 in Dubai.
Joby's helicopters are marketed as emission-free and quieter than traditional helicopters, aiming to revolutionize urban air travel amidst significant existing challenges in airport commutes.
