65 Knt cruise! Compared to today's relative ground vehicle speeds in a big city traffic gridlock that's probably faster then a car. The problem for drones will be the soon to arrive computer drive cars will speed up car traffic flow dramatically. A 65Knt airspeed may end up being slower then ground based computer controlled transport.

The big issue with airborne city commuters will be noise. With the increasing residential accomodation being built in the city's the last thing people will want is a swam of screaming drone traffic overhead as they sit outside sipping latte.
