Another Day, Another Toothless MoU to "Explore" eVTOL Ops in a Less Stringently Regulated Region

Eve Air Mobility joined hands with flynas in an MoU that promises to "explore the future of electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft operations in Saudi Arabia".

Under the agreement, the partners will "explore the possibility of starting eVTOL operations in Riyadh and Jeddah in 2026", though exactly what that entails was not revealed.

“This partnership represents not only a milestone in our shared vision for sustainable air travel but also a commitment to shaping a more efficient, eco-friendly and accessible transportation landscape,” said Johann Bordais, CEO of Eve. “We look forward to embarking on this groundbreaking journey with flynas as we join forces to advance the future of air mobility in Saudi Arabia.”

Bander Almohanna, CEO and Managing Director of flynas said that Eve was a solid pick for the endeavor. “We are pleased to explore the sustainable solutions with Eve Air Mobility as a pioneering company in this field, in line with flynas’ strategy to adopt initiatives with sustainable impact on the environment, society, and economy in parallel with the national goals to neutralize greenhouse gas emissions by 2060”.
