Air Tax in India: Technology is progressing a lot all over the world. Now such things have become possible which at one time seemed impossible for people to even think about. Earlier people used to wonder how to travel in the air. But after the invention of the Wright Brothers, this task also became possible. And now not only airplanes but various types of flying ships have been made.
Now when people have to go somewhere, they book a taxi for that. Many times people get stuck in traffic due to which they get late. Have you ever thought that if someone takes you flying in the air, then you will always reach on time, in fact you will reach before time. This may sound very unbelievable now but soon this can happen and this has not been said by us but by the Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi.
Air taxi can be seen soon
This year, the world’s first flying taxi service has started in Dubai. This service has been started by a startup company in collaboration with Gulf Emirates. Now people will be able to fly from one place to another in Dubai. Usually, when people have to travel long distances, they travel by plane. But there are many people in it too. Air taxi will work just like a taxi running on the ground. You will be able to book it and travel from one place to another.
