Only in Dubai could someone be taken so seriously enough after reports that Dubai Taxi Company said it plans to start a helicopter taxi service for VIP travellers by 2009.
That is right, congestion is a big problem in Dubai, with many people spending most of their days on the Sheikh Zayed Road, waiting for the standstill traffic to move an inch. The government even tried Salik in a bid to ease the congestion, but eventually someone has thrown in the towel and decided that the only way to beat the traffic is to go over it!
There were no "details regarding the implementation of the service or how much the service would cost and where passengers would be picked up and dropped off" said sources,.
Of course not, no one would think someone's hair brained scheme would be given the thumbs up let alone envisaging things like cost, infrastructure or the viability of such a service.
