According to the People's Committee of Binh Dinh province, flying taxi is a type of transportation using small electric aircraft, taking off and landing vertically, transporting about 4 - 5 people. This is a completely new type of transportation, in the world, there are a number of countries that have researched and tested passenger transportation by flying taxi such as China, the US, Germany, the UK, Singapore, South Korea, ... but in Vietnam, this type does not exist yet.

Meanwhile, Binh Dinh has many famous beautiful beaches such as Quy Nhon, Hai Giang, Trung Luong, Cat Hai..., many islands near the shore: Nhon Chau, Hon Kho, Yen Island..., and has beautiful landscapes with favorable conditions for exploitation to serve sea tourism activities.

Binh Dinh also has coastal bays and lagoons (Quy Nhon Bay, Thi Nai lagoon, Tra O lagoon, ...) and more than 30 large and small islands, which are valuable for tourism exploitation. However, at present, there is still no suitable means of transport to be able to explore all the natural beauty of Binh Dinh province as well as help move between tourist destinations conveniently and quickly.

This province believes that flying taxis are a new, unique, modern, and innovative green transportation method that stimulates tourism demand, makes travel easy, saves time, serves visitors well, has competitive prices, and emits less harmful emissions than conventional road and rail vehicles.

Therefore, this can be considered an ideal means of transport for tourists to experience and admire the wild and majestic natural beauty of Binh Dinh from above.

Flying taxi has a lot of potential, suitable to stimulate tourism in Binh Dinh

" Flying taxi is a form of transportation with a lot of potential, suitable for the tourism development needs of Binh Dinh province, contributing to building the locality into a leading attractive destination in the region and to realize the goal of comprehensive, fast and sustainable tourism development.

The benefits that can be brought from flying taxis are huge, it is necessary to have a testing plan, a roadmap for pilot implementation, and build a solid legal corridor before putting this type of transport into official operation. Therefore, the People's Committee of Binh Dinh province requests the Ministry of Transport to consider the report and recommend the Prime Minister for approval so that the People's Committee of the province can develop a project for flying taxis in the province ", the document sent to the Ministry of Transport by the People's Committee of Binh Dinh province stated.
