Hours after it signed a contract with Australian company Wilbur Air, Spanish electric aircraft manufacturer Crisalion Mobility announced that it is partnering with Dubai-based private aviation operator Air Chateau to support the development of electric air taxi service in the United Arab Emirates, including Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
Air Chateau’s pre-order of 10 Integrity eVTOLs was announced on the third day of the ongoing Show. The eVTOl company’s pre-orderbook to 125 aircraft. It also represents the company’s first commercial partnership in both the private aviation market and the Middle East.
Crisalion’s Integrity eVTOL, currently under development, is designed to accommodate up to five passengers and a pilot. Its characteristics make it suitable for urban and intercity passenger and cargo transport. Designed with FlyFree technology, the aircraft guarantees the utmost safety at all stages of flight, delivering an optimal travel experience while minimising emissions.
“Air Chateau has demonstrated a strong commitment to advanced air mobility, innovation, and technology as one of UAE’s leading aviation companies,” said Crisalion Mobility General Manager Manuel Heredia. “This partnership opens not only the door to a strategic region for Crisalion but will also form part of Air Chateau’s approach to providing sustainable air travel services to its customers.”
“Our shared vision of transforming Advanced Air mobility (AAM) aligns perfectly with the needs of modern transportation in the urban and suburban settings. Through this partnership, we will not only enhance connectivity but also contribute to alleviating the burden on legacy ground infrastructure, complement existing transportation networks, reduce congestion and to build a sustainable future,” said Air Chateau’s Chairman, Samir Mohamed.
