Will definitely happen, but not in the west due to (over) regulation. We used to be able to do things, but we have become too scared and too regulated. More likely China (country of origin) or Middle East.
Can see commuting to centre of city, and then drone heading to a central charging station. Or based at shopping mall as a way of attracting lucrative customers.
Cost will initially mean this technology confined to the more wealthy - which is exactly the demographic shopping malls want.
Business and first class are for a minority of pax. But that is where most airlines make their $$$.
If you think it won't happen...... have you seen a Blockbuster store recently? Or a music shop selling CDs?
