Eve Air Mobility has collaborated with Sydney-based advanced air mobility company Alt Air and infrastructure developer Skyports to support the introduction of electric vertical take-off and land (eVTOL) operations in New South Wales and Queensland, Australia.
A Strategic Collaboration in eVTOL Operations
Eve Air Mobility is the global leader in the development of next-generation electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) solutions. The company has recently partnered with Alt Air, a new advanced air mobility company based in Sydney, Australia, which has also entered into a collaboration with Skyports Infrastructure (Skyports) to prepare for eVTOL operations across two Australian states: New South Wales and Queensland.
This partnership aims to establish a new urban air mobility ecosystem in Australia, combining advance aircraft technology, operational planning and infrastructure development.
The initiative is anticipated to support sustainable, low-noise transport options for residents, businesses and tourists, and comes as the region prepares for major events such as the opening of Western Sydney International Airport and the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games.
Alongside these partnerships, Alt Air will leverage existing airports and other unique aviation infrastructure assets in Sydney, including operating bases on Sydney Harbour and at Palm Beach.
With Skyports, Alt Air will explore new vertiport locations to expand the network of future commercial eVTOL services in Queensland. This grouping brings together the key components required to establish a safe, efficient, and sustainable Urban Air Mobility (UAM) ecosystem, one that will position Australia as a global leader in next-generation transportation services.
Electric Air Mobility ahead of the 2032 Brisbane Games
The three partners will jointly develop an integrated operational framework covering key aspects of the merging market, including vertiport infrastructure, route planning, airspace integration, ground operations and customer experience.
Eve, Alt Air and Skyports will assess priority routes linking major population centres, commercial districts, and tourism hubs across Sydney, South East Queensland, and surrounding regions. Early concepts include high-demand corridors such as Western Sydney International Airport to downtown Sydney.
As Queensland prepares to welcome the world for the Olympics games in Brisbane 2032, the collaboration aims to enable eVTOL services that provide an efficient, sustainable, and future forward mobility option for visitors and residents.
By establishing a connected vertiport network and fully operational routes ahead of the Games, Eve, Alt Air and Skyports intend to showcase Australia’s leadership in advance air mobility. These services are expected to enhance connectivity between key summer games venues, central business districts, and major airports, including Brisbane, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast Airports.
