Further disclosures acknowledge the forward-looking nature and risks, stressing that partnerships and timelines hinge on regulatory approvals and other conditions.

Officials indicate the service is several years away from launch as FAA certification for Archer’s Midnight aircraft is still pending.

The project will leverage partnerships with Related Ross (a major real estate investor), Apogee Golf Club, and Hard Rock Stadium, including repurposed heliports and newly built vertiports.

A vertiport in Miami’s Little Haiti is slated to be developed in collaboration with Plaza Equity Partners at Dragon Global’s Magic City Innovation District.

There is no firm rollout date; the project is considered several years out due to eVTOL development and FAA certification hurdles.

Archer Aviation unveiled plans for a Miami-area air taxi network linking Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach, featuring 10-20 minute electric flights designed to ease ground traffic and foster a regional mobility ecosystem.

Archer cautions that plans depend on regulatory certification and definitive agreements, with additional details available in the company’s SEC filings and the press release.
