PODCAST: Ed Wegel of UrbanLink Air Mobility on its Vision for eVTOLs and Sea Gliders Across Florida and the Caribbean

Our next pod­cast episode is live! This week, we were delight­ed to be joined by Ed Wegel, Founder and Chair­man of Urban­Link Air Mobil­i­ty.

With over 35 years in air­line lead­er­ship, Ed shares how Urban­Link is prepar­ing to launch zero-emis­sion, mul­ti­modal region­al travel—combining eVTOL air­craft and sea gliders—across key hubs like Mia­mi, San Juan in Puer­to Rico, and Los Ange­les by 2028.

Ed offers a can­did look at the chal­lenges and oppor­tu­ni­ties ahead, from FAA cer­ti­fi­ca­tion and infra­struc­ture hur­dles to cus­tomer expe­ri­ence, pric­ing strate­gies, and what sets Urban­Link apart in a rapid­ly evolv­ing AAM mar­ket. With firm plans in place and part­ner­ships under­way, this episode is packed with insights on what it takes to be a first mover in advanced air mobil­i­ty.
