Joby Aviation Inc. (NYSE:JOBY) is one of the best performing large cap stocks to buy. On September 29, the Ras Al Khaimah Transport Authority/RAKTA, Joby Aviation, and Skyports Infrastructure announced a long-term collaboration to launch a passenger air taxi service network in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah/RAK by 2027

The partnership brings together RAKTA’s governmental support, Skyports’ expertise in developing vertiport infrastructure, and Joby’s all-electric vertical takeoff and landing/eVTOL aircraft to design, develop, and operate RAK’s first air taxi service. The new service aligns with RAK’s 2030 Mobility Master Plan to meet the growing demand for fast and convenient transport.

The service is expected to begin with an inter-emirate corridor, connecting Joby’s planned service in Dubai with RAK, which is a major step in advancing the UAE’s air mobility vision. The corridor will connect to landmark hospitality developments in RAK, including Al Marjan Island, where the new Wynn Al Marjan is set to open in 2027, and Jebel Jais.
