Transcend Air VTOL airline: New York to Boston in 36 minutes for $283 - Business Insider

Aerospace startup Transcend Air is aiming to offer airline-style service between the downtown areas of major cities using vertical take-off and land aircraft.

Once in operation, the company is promising 36-minute travel times between helipads New York and Boston for $283 one-way. The company is currently seeking a manufacturer to develop its flagship Vy 400 airliner that will power the service as no planned VTOLs meet the current needs of the company. An aerospace startup is aiming to revolutionize travel in the Northeast Corridor between New York and Boston using vertical take-off and land tiltrotor aircraft that can make the downtown-to-downtown journey in less than an hour.

Transcend Air was founded in 2017 by Gregory Bruell, the former head of Silicon Valley VTOL design firm Elytron, and Peter Schmidt, the senior technology advisor for air-taxi provider Linear Air. The duo combined their respective expertise to form the new airline startup that aims to bring high-speed intra-city travel to the masses.

The idea for Transcend Air initially stemmed from the issue Bruell and thousands of travelers face: the increasing of travel times between nearby major cities. After spending four years at the helm of Elytron designing VTOL aircraft, the company split into two, and Bruell turned his focus to bringing VTOL into an airline setting. Powering Transcend Air's business model is the Vy 400 airliner VTOL aircraft, a five-seater that is flown by a single-pilot.
