Uber takes to the skies in Melbourne from 2020

We're excited to announce that Melbourne has been selected as the first international launch city for Uber Air from 2020! Uber Air is our most ambitious vision for the future of transportation - taking Uber's tech into the skies and making it possible for people to push a button and get a flight.

The Australian and Victorian governments forward-thinking mindset and support of ridesharing make Melbourne the perfect testing ground for Uber Air. Melbourne is just the tip of the iceberg for urban aviation in Australia, and we look forward to working towards bringing Uber Air to Sydney and beyond in the future.

We are also excited to share that Uber Elevate will be partnering with leading Australian companies including Macquarie, Telstra and Scentre Group, owner and operator of Westfield in Australia and New Zealand, who will help support us in creating a successful urban aviation network.
