Urban air mobility basically refers to the urban transportation systems that provide air commuting options to the people. In many major cities and towns, these solutions are rapidly becoming popular, because of the rising road traffic congestion. For example, it has been observed with the help of surveys and studies that “the people in the U.S. spend, on an average, 90 hours in traffic jams every year”. Furthermore, due to these long traffic jams, “their expenditure on travelling increases by more than $1,000 each year”. 

Passenger and cargo aircrafts are the two main types of UAM systems available in the market. Between the two, the adoption of passenger aircrafts will be higher in the coming years. Additionally, “these aircrafts will generate huge revenue in the urban air mobility market in future, on account of the fact that the tariffs for these services would be kept much higher” than that of the cargo planes, owing to their higher demand, especially in the major cities.

These urban aircrafts have two types of operating systems namely autonomous and piloted systems. Of these, “the adoption of autonomous operating systems will be higher in the urban mobility systems during 2020—2030”. This is mainly credited to the fact that the planes running on autonomous operating systems are preferred for use in both passenger and cargo services by both the customers and manufacturers over the piloted aircrafts. Furthermore, various aircraft manufacturing companies, infrastructure providers, and researchers working on airspace integration are increasingly making huge investments in autonomous air mobility solutions in order to develop better autonomous aircrafts.

Therefore, it can be said without any hesitation that the demand for UAM solutions will rise considerably throughout the world over the next several years, primarily because of the increasing prevalence of road accidents and increasing traffic congestion in major urban areas around the world.
