New Milestone
A significant milestone? The inaugural Abu Dhabi Mobility Week, where the Middle East witnessed its first-ever passenger-carrying drone trials!

One featured a five-seater drone capable of traveling over 25km, while the other carried two passengers for a scenic 20-minute flight.
Abu Dhabi’s position as a global hub for smart and autonomous vehicles has been reinforced through this event. Their advanced infrastructure in AI and smart vehicles, along with the SAVI cluster at Masdar City, further fuels their innovation in this sector.
The event unveiled MLG’s diverse fleet of Autonomous Aerial Vehicles (AAVs), showcasing their versatility in aviation. Witnessing the historic debut flight of a passenger-carrying drone was a sight to behold, especially as it soared through the skies displaying the UAE’s name for all to see.
Passenger Drone the Future of Mobility?
But this isn’t just passenger transportation. MLG’s solutions extend to inter-city taxis, cargo logistics, and even surveillance drones. Imagine the potential for revolutionizing transportation and logistics! Celebrated guests, dignitaries, and even Mohamed Hamad Al Dhaheri, a Board Member of MLG, took part in the demo flight, marking a significant milestone for the Middle East.
Abu Dhabi’s vision is to shape the future of mobility with innovative solutions and collaborative partnerships. And with these successful trials, the future of flying cars seems less like science fiction and more like a reality just around the corner.
