Estimating vertiport passenger throughput capacity for prominent eVTOL designs [PDF]

open access: yesCEAS Aeronautical Journal, 2023
AbstractUrban Air Mobility has the potential to substantially reduce travel times in some cases of urban-related transportation. Travel time savings strongly depend on fast processing at vertiports, which presents a key challenge considering demand levels’ vertiports would experience when becoming an established mode of transport.
