They’re real jet-setters.
Florida automaker Jovari plans to revolutionize air travel with a cutting-edge boarding system that loads passengers onto planes in giant cylindrical cartridges, among other improvements. A video of the so-called airport of the future is currently taking off on Instagram.
Dubbed Jovari Jetspeed, the expeditious system allegedly has the potential to slash “millions of hours and billions of expenses from air travel,” a narrator declared in the clip.
This radical proposal comes right as luggage storage company Bounce named New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport the least efficient flight hub in the US, reportedly taking a total of 39 minutes and 48 seconds to navigate security and customs.
He explained that the problem with the current state of air travel is the long lines, stressful security checkpoints and interminable treks to the gate.
Instead of forcing flyers to navigate a veritable gauntlet to board the plane, this automated system brings the plane cabin to the passenger.
Per the demo, passengers board autonomous open-sided mobile cartridges right at the gate, which then shuttle them right into the open-backed fuselage — like loading a giant shotgun with wings.
The passengers’ seats in the cylinder are the same as their seats on the plane, negating the need for labyrinthine lines and dealing with gate lice crowding the boarding area.
As a result, many flights will board in “under 20 minutes,” the narrator proclaimed.
The Jovari Jetspeed system also saves on space. For one, gates will be much closer to the main flight hub because they no longer have to spread out to make room for airplane wingspans.
According to the airport makeover model, a whopping 40 cartridges fit where six planes did, “fitting many more flights into less sprawl,” the narrator declared.
Like a game of airport Tetris, the cartridges will be arrayed in compact circles with security and check-in zones arranged in concentric configurations around them.
This further allows airports to consolidate space and expedite the process from check-in to wheels up, per the clip.
And the convenience purportedly doesn’t stop when passengers deplane. Upon landing, the automated cylinders will extract themselves from the plane and deposit passengers directly in the center of the airport.
There, passengers will retrieve their bags from an automated cargo cartridge, cancelling out the need to languish in baggage claim as suitcases crawl around the luggage carousel.
No luggage cart, no problem. Per the video, some of the airports will even come equipped with autonomous bag bots that “bring your luggage to your autonomous taxi and load it for you,” the narrator claimed.
In fact, human staff will be replaced by bots wherever possible, including in menial custodial tasks.
By implementing this fully automatic system, Jovari hopes to “eliminate thousands of car and train and train trips” to and from airports every day, per the clip.
However, the increased automation doesn’t mean passengers have to sacrifice comfort for the sake of convenience, the narrator assured.
Those who enjoy a more luxurious airport experience can still have access to VIP lounges, kids’ zones and even pet areas, per the clip.
Despite the consolidated cartridge configuration, passengers will still have plenty of seats at the gates as there will be far fewer travelers milling about.
The video didn’t disclose when Jovavi Jetspeed will take flight, but this isn’t the first time someone has floated a lofty proposal for streamlining air travel.
Last year, Italian aerospace company Optimares unveiled designs for a convertible “sofa-bed”-style business class seat, which would optimize comfort sans sacrificing space.
