Briefing
DXV has reached a major construction milestone (topping‑out) and is reported at ~60% complete, with developers targeting initial commercial eVTOL flights next year — the first such facility adjacent to a global hub.
The vertiport accelerates Skyports' regional rollout and public‑infrastructure push, following its confirmed vertiport rollout in Abu Dhabi and a framework to build four vertiports in Ras Al Khaimah.
The milestone comes after operational demonstrations in Dubai, including a crewed eVTOL origin-to-destination demonstration, signalling a shift from test flights to deploying commercial vertiport infrastructure.
