The Italian Civil Aviation Authority (Enac) is defining the draft regulation on air taxis. The document specifies the requirements for aircraft Vca (Vertical Take-off and Landing Capable Aircraft) as well as the related trajectories and infrastructures, such as vertiports, which must be respected on Italian territory. The consultation with operators will close by 5 February.

This is a Italian regulatory framework that constitutes an important step for sustainable urban mobility of the future. The document will define: the characteristics of the airspaces called "Vca corridors", the navigation rules for aircraft (mainly eVtol); the requirements for the construction, certification and management of vertiports. 

Air connections made with a flying taxi are a type of mobility that offers a double advantage: the speed of movement between different urban areas to avoid road traffic, a greater capillarity of transport thanks to the installation of vertiports in densely populated areas.
