Lilium and its partners aim to launch a network of eVTOL air services connecting communities across the French Riviera. Starting in 2026, flights in the four- to six-passenger Lilium Jet are expected to operate between Monaco, Nice, Sophia Antipolis, Cannes, Saint Tropez, Aix-en-Provence, and Marseille.

On Tuesday at EBACE 2024, the German manufacturer announced a partnership with Aéroports de la Côte d’Azur and Italian infrastructure group UrbanV. Lilium said it is in discussions with several existing aircraft operators that have shown interest in acquiring Lilium Jets to serve the affluent communities in the south of France, which attract around 11 million visitors each year.
