Helicopter flights are a whole different category. They’re stupid expensive, and really only necessary if you don’t have a landing strip (or if you’re disgustingly rich).

I could see electric planes easily replacing short flights between small cities and the nearest major hub. Jet fuel ain’t cheap, and theoretically these electric planes could be very cost effective. For long flights, I expect we won’t see electric planes for quite a long time.
