Abstract :This research aims to examine the future potential of urban air mobility and determine its acceptance level. The questionnaire technique, which is a qualitative data collection technique, was used in the research. The data obtained from 408 participants were analyzed using SPSS statistical analysis software. Factor analysis was used to determine the structure of the scale. Then, the independent sample T-test and One-Way ANOVA analysis were used to investigate the differences between demographic variables regarding the acceptance of urban air mobility. The research results showed that acceptance of urban air mobility varies according to some demographic factors. It was determined that factors such as gender, marital status, and education level did not significantly affect the acceptance of urban air mobility. However, it was observed that as the income level increased, the respondents evaluated urban air mobility more positively, and their intention to use it increased. Participants with higher incomes had a more positive view of the advantages of urban air mobility and the intention to pay. The results show that income level is an important factor differentiating attitudes towards urban air mobility. Age was found to have an effect on traveling habits.
