You will be able to easily book helicopter seats this year

Uber plans to add in-app helicopter and seaplane bookings in 2026, starting on premium airport and coastal routes through partners already flying those trips. It’s the same tap-to-book habit, just swapping curbside pickup for a helipad. For context, this competes on time saved, not fare, and it gives Uber a fast lane into air taxis before electric aircraft arrive at scale.
When the app becomes the marketplace, even aviation starts to look like a category.
