Joby Aviation is awaiting FAA approval to start transporting passengers. Recently, the company conducted a demonstration of its electric air taxi at JFK Airport, showcasing a future route to Manhattan. The demonstration, featuring Joby’s pilot-operated aircraft, highlighted the long journey ahead before commercial passenger services can begin. Despite flying over 50,000 miles over nine years, the company is still navigating the regulatory process for FAA certification. Joby plans to start its first passenger services in Dubai, with the US launch pending regulatory approval.
