Key Takeaways:

Future Flight Global (FFG) plans to launch a phased zero-emission air service in Florida, beginning in early 2027 with conventional Pilatus PC-12 turboprops to build operational experience and customer relationships before transitioning to all-electric and eVTOL aircraft.
FFG has made significant commitments to electric aircraft, including firm orders for Beta Technologies' Alia CX300 (conventional electric) and non-firm orders for over 170 eVTOL aircraft from Eve Air Mobility and Archer Aviation.
The initial network will focus on key Florida cities, with ground infrastructure development supported by Signature UrbanV Alliance, which will establish vertiports and charging facilities leveraging existing Signature FBO locations.

Future Flight Global (FFG), which intends to operate an upcoming network of commercial electric and eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) aircraft routes, will soon begin laying the groundwork for zero-emission air service in Florida.

The prospective operator said Monday that it plans to launch a regional air service using certified Pilatus PC-12 single-engine turboprops in early 2027. FFG aims to shore up customer relationships and commercial operating experience before transitioning to all-electric aircraft, which it said will arrive in a “subsequent phase as aircraft availability, applicable approvals, and commercial readiness allow.”
