A method configured for implementation by a passenger drone include communicating with an Air Traffic Control (ATC) system via a primary wireless network, the primary wireless network being associated with a first cell tower; receiving emergency instructions from the ATC system; storing the emergency instructions in memory, the emergency instructions configured to be implemented during an emergency situation; detecting when communication with the ATC system via the primary wireless network is disrupted; responsive to detecting when the communication with the ATC system via the primary wireless network is disrupted, implementing a network switchover procedure to attempt to reestablish communication to the ATC system via a backup wireless network; and, responsive to a failed attempt to reestablish communication to the ATC system via the backup wireless network, implementing the emergency instructions.
