Zumum, the electric plane startup backed by companies like JetBlue and Boeing, has just announced it has made a deal with JetSuite to sell 100 electric planes with deliveries expected to commence in 2022. That means that for the first time, electric planes will become a part of commercial travel. The planes, which are smaller and cheaper to operate than most commercial aircraft, will initially be used to improve regional travel within the US.
The era of electric planes is set to begin in 2022 thanks to this new deal
