China's Ehang takes flight with certified flying cars, leaving U.S. rivals grounded. Could this be the next big thing in tourism and, dare I say, dating?

Hello Gorgeous...and Airborne!

Darling remember when Mr. Big said 'Abso f***ing lutely?' Well I think I just had another one of those moments. Forget diamonds flying cars are forever! China's Ehang has officially gotten the green light to carry passengers in their autonomous eVTOLs. It's like 'The Jetsons' met 'Sex and the City,' and I for one am ready for my close up...in the sky!

Manhattan is SO Last Century

While we're stuck hailing cabs that reek of desperation and old pizza China is soaring into the future. Ehang plans to launch tourist flights by June. Imagine: no more Hamptons traffic just a quick jaunt in your personal flying machine. Could this be the ultimate escape from brunch crowds and bad dates? I'm thinking yes.

China Takes the Lead: U.S. Rivals Grounded?

While Ehang is reaching for the sky American companies like Joby Aviation and Archer Aviation are still navigating the bureaucratic runway. The FAA is taking its sweet time with certifications focusing on piloted flights first. Sometimes I wonder if America is too busy arguing over labels to see the big picture – or in this case the big beautiful flying car! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No darling it's the future and it's leaving us in the dust…or should I say smog?

The Price of a Dream (or a Flying Car)

Ehang's 216 S model rings up at a cool $330,000 in China and $410,000 elsewhere. Okay so maybe it's not *quite* as affordable as a new pair of Manolos but think of the possibilities! Forget Ubers; imagine arriving at a party in your own personal flying chariot. Suddenly the price tag doesn't seem so high does it? It's all about perspective darling and altitude.

Is This a Bird Is This a Plane? No It's My Next Investment!

Bank of America is singing Ehang's praises predicting a major surge in their stock. They foresee a booming market especially with tourists clamoring for airborne adventures. So the question isn't 'Should I buy a new Birkin?' but 'Should I buy Ehang stock?' Perhaps I should diversify my portfolio... with a little help from my friends... at Goldman Sachs naturally.

But What About the Manicures?

Of course with all this talk of flying cars a girl can't help but wonder: what about the risks? Bank of America also noted that accidents could damage Ehang's reputation. Suddenly flying doesn't seem so glamorous does it? Still isn't life all about taking risks? And honestly who wouldn't want to say they took a flying car to their next board meeting? After all as I always say 'Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate.' Or maybe it's just the wind messing up my hair.
