Volocopter is preparing to launch air taxi services with its VoloCity eVTOL aircraft in Singapore by the end of 2023. In a December 9 announcement, the German company said it will work with the Economic Development Board of Singapore and the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS). 

Over the next three years, Volocopter said it will recruit a team of 50 pilots, engineers, operations specialists, and business managers. By 2026, it expects to have grown its team to 200 people and at that point will be operating a network of routes across the Southeast Asian city-state.
