Ridesharing giant Uber is set to launch UberAir in Los Angeles by 2020. UberAir promises new flying taxis which will take passengers to new heights, as well as new destinations.

Uber’s Chief Product officer, Jeff Holden, wants UberAir to be making tens of thousands of trips, across LA, daily by the 2028 LA Olympics.
