This paper explores the potential role of Urban Air Mobility to reduce commuting travel time and replace car travel. It looks at the eleven largest US Combined Statistical Areas. By utilizing open commuting data, the paper presents potential travel time savings and reduction of generalized cost for commuting trips in the USA. The findings show that while the potential to reduce travel time is substantial, this is not the case for generalized cost. In the best case, under the circumstances described in the paper, the market share is potentially close to 2% of all commuting trips, while in the more probable case, it would be closer to 0.1%.
