Big shakeup in the air mobility world! Joby Aviation just announced it's acquiring Blade Air Mobility's passenger division for up to $125 million. That means Joby’s not just developing electric aircraft anymore, they’re gaining lounges, terminals, and operational routes in both the US and Europe all under the recognizable Blade brand.
As someone watching the eVTOL space closely, this feels like a major leap toward making flying taxis a reality. Blade already had a customer base and urban routes, so integrating that with Joby's tech could really push commercial flights forward. Anyone else excited or nervous about how quickly urban air travel is evolving?
