air taxi
On-demand small plane
An air taxi is a small aircraft available for hire on demand, typically for short trips between locations not well served by commercial airlines.
Unlike scheduled flights, air taxis operate flexibly, picking up passengers when and where needed.
The term now also applies to emerging urban air mobility services—electric vertical-takeoff vehicles designed for city transport: We took an air taxi from the airport to downtown.
