French startup Moove has introduced an AAM trip simulator, described as a direct sales and passenger platform and a multimodal door-to-door portal offered to future AAM operators and airports as Software as a Service (SaaS).
The offering allows every stakeholder and future passenger to easily visualize flights, their benefits in travel time savings, and reductions in CO2 emissions.
Moove launched its planning portal as a means to offer a glimpse of future suburban and regional travel.
“In the future, with shorter distances aerial travel, competitivity with ground transportation will be at the core of passenger’s decision while environmental footprint would need to be demonstrated each time they want to fly,” said Moove founder Arthur Ingles.
As eVTOL and eSTOL manufacturers advance into the flight tests phase, the market will start looking at what those aircraft will bring to people’s travel. Therefore, the startup designed its simulator to allow planning with figures on CO2, time, and productivity benefits.
Sales integration will be key for a new scale of operations.
According to Moove, reducing the book-to-fly time-lapse while allowing a robust distribution system will allow operators to reach out to a larger number of passengers.
“Those will be far from imagining what the third dimension brings and Moove will support operators to reach out to the largest audience possible,” added Ingles.
