Due to recent technological advancements, flying cars are expected to be introduced in the near future, and to offer flexible mobility patterns, as well as shorter and more reliable travel times. This paper aims to analyse whether a residence relocation trend (from urban to rural areas, or vice versa) is imminent if flying cars are introduced.  In this respect, responses of 584 individuals from the United States were collected through an online survey. The resulting data are statistically analysed through correlated grouped random parameters bivariate and univariate probit models, while accounting for unobserved heterogeneity. The analysis reveals that various socio-demographic characteristics and opinions of the individuals towards the perceived benefits and challenges of flying cars influence residence relocation consideration. The findings from this study offer early insights into the travel demand, land use, and urban and regional planning related challenges that may emerge from the future introduction of flying cars.
