Abstract

A mobility service system plans an itinerary including movement from a first takeoff and landing site to a second takeoff and landing site in response to a reservation request from a user. Specifically, the mobility service system identifies a first eVTOL available at the first takeoff and landing site, and estimates a first amount of battery charge of the first eVTOL at a time of start of use by the user. When a first flight from the first takeoff and landing site to the second takeoff and landing site is not achievable with the first amount of battery charge, the mobility service system searches for a second flight from the first takeoff and landing site to a third takeoff and landing site that is achievable with the first amount of battery charge, and plans a second itinerary that goes through the third takeoff and landing site.
