Uber will choose from the list of cities for the shortlisted country as the third launch city in order to make flying taxis established, after Los Angeles and Dallas in the USA.

The company mentioned in a statement, “Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru are some of the most congested cities in the world, where traveling even a few kilometers can take over an hour.
