In this flight, a small Piper aircraft belonging to the Iranian airline Atlas, transported passengers from Karaj to the city of Qazvin, 140 kilometers away from the capital city of Tehran.

In Iran, air taxi services were operational long ago, but due to a lack of infrastructure development, they gradually faded away.

The Iranian airline Atlas offers innovative services in Iran’s aviation industry with a fleet of 10 air taxis, accommodating between 2 to 35 passengers.

Air taxis are considered a system of air transportation that uses small aircraft and commercial jets to move passengers on short to medium routes, especially in metropolitan areas and congested regions.

With growing demand for rapid travel, air taxi services enable both personal and business trips with maximum speed and minimal formalities. Passengers can choose their desired routes without relying on fixed airline schedules, reaching their destinations in the shortest possible time.

Key advantages of the system include significantly reduced travel time compared to ground and rail methods, flexibility in flight planning, reduced stress from delays and airport congestion, access to small and local airports, and improved connectivity to underserved areas.
