Thailand's air mobility: SkyDrive is planning EVTOL operation in Bangkok!
In Bangkok, from September 10, 2025, an important step was taken towards future air mobility. Skydrive, a pioneer in the manufacture of Evtol (electrically vertical and landing aircraft), took part in a discussion that was running around the clock that dealt with the establishment of EVTOL companies in Thailand. This event took place in the headquarters of the Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand (CAAT) and attracted representatives of well-known organizations, including Bangkok Airways, Saha Pathana Inter-Holding and Saha Tokyu Corporation. Airports International reports that the participants exchanged the future development of the air mobility industry and discussed the necessary framework for a successful introduction of the new technology.
A central topic of the talks was a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), which was signed in June 2024, which SkyDrive developed together with its partners. The aim of this mous is to examine the feasibility and the best procedures for the use of Evtols in Thailand. In order to advance the introduction, both public-private partnerships and a well thought-out infrastructure development are essential. The need for close cooperation can be found in the discussions of the past week, in which the detailed plans for future mobility have been discussed.
Growth of air mobility
As a focus, Skydrive first selected the regions Si Racha, Koh Samui and Bangkok, where a future use of Evtol is planned. The exchange with Bangkok Airways is particularly promising, since both companies have a common interest in the development of this innovative aviation technology. According to the LinkedIn, a big goal of this initiative is to initiate a so-called mobility revolution that revolutionizes everyday transport through applications in the airspace.
Another point on the agenda was the possibility of a trip from Caat representatives to Japan to look over the shoulder of SkyDrive during flight demonstrations about the latest developments in EVTOL technology. This would not only promote the exchange of knowledge, but also support Thailand in the tank building of an effective air mobility sector that can keep up in international comparison.
A look into the future
The developments related to EVTOL technology can be traced in the aviation industry. It promises to offer solutions for some of the most pressing traffic problems and to initiate a new era of mobility. According to the reports of Capa, this initiative is considered significant progress and signal for the aspiring air mobility sector in Thailand.
In summary, it can be said that the talks about Evtol companies in Thailand give an exciting outlook on the future of aviation. The united forces of SkyDrive and its partners pose the route for a new chapter of mobility, which could soon fly into the sky via Thailand.
