FLY FROM WEST PALM TO MIAMI IN 20 MINUTES?

A new “air taxi” network could soon turn a 2-hour drive into a quick flight , skipping I-95 traffic entirely.

Planned Service Overview

Several companies are developing “electric vertical takeoff and landing” (eVTOL) networks to bypass I-95 traffic.

  • Archer Aviation: Currently on track for its first passenger-carrying flights in the U.S. in 2026. Their planned network includes routes connecting Miami International Airport (MIA), Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach (PBI).
  • Vertical Aerospace: Has showcased its “Valo” aircraft in Miami, with estimated flight times of roughly 36 minutes to Palm Beach.
  • Ride Time: Flights are expected to take 10–20 minutes, significantly reducing the 60–90 minute drive.

Key Locations & Infrastructure

  • Airports: Miami International (MIA) and Palm Beach International (PBI).
  • Urban Hubs: A dedicated vertiport is planned for downtown West Palm Beach.
  • Special Venues: Partners like Hard Rock Stadium and Apogee Golf Club plan to integrate existing helipads into the network
