After running the roads all over the world for years, Uber is ready to give you more chances for helicopter rides.
It might not be long before Uber helicopter rides are more than just expensive novelties. Uber has forged a deal that has Airbus supplying helicopters for a transportation test project launching in “several weeks.” Details of how it’ll work aren’t available just yet, but the hope is that this will lower the cost of Uber-by-air options — they may eventually be inexpensive enough that you can realistically take a chopper when a normal ride would be inconvenient (or just plain boring). The pact isn’t surprising given Uber’s recent attempts to diversify beyond cars, but it’s welcome all the same.
