Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for high-traffic density air transportation. An example system includes a land vehicle having a first location and a transit carrier having a movement system, first stacking couplers, a first and second magnetic coupler, and a transit pod having second stacking couplers configured to couple to the first stacking couplers, a UAV having UAV couplers and a second location, and a controller to, in response to obtaining a request to direct the land vehicle to move from the first location to a third location, invoke the UAV to move to the third location, and in response to the land vehicle and the UAV arriving at the third location, invoke the UAV to couple to the transit pod to facilitate transport of the transit pod from the third location to a fourth location by coupling the UAV couplers to the second stacking couplers.
