Add the word "vertiport" -- to my 2021 lexicon...
Very cool. I’m curious, why did they chose Florida?
In addition to what my sibling comment said, Florida also has lots of islands to travel between, and very stable weather.
It sounds like it’s to take tourists, of which there are many, from one destination to another. Florida also has a lot of wealthier, older, retired people that may use the service (my hunch). Florida is also very flat, which I imagine helps keep costs low.
