Air transport start-up EvFly says it is firming up its plans to launch air mobility services with a mixed fleet of eVTOL and eCTOL aircraft. The Singapore-based company, which expects to start taking delivery of new aircraft in 2025, this month confirmed that flights will first be available in Thailand, as part of a longer-term plan to expand services across Southeast Asia and also to the Middle East and Africa.

In July, French eVTOL aircraft developer Ascendance Flight Technologies reported that EvFly is one of half a dozen private flight providers and helicopter operators that have signed letters of intent for up to 245 of its four-passenger Atea aircraft. These also include Singapore-based flight booking platform Yugo.
