This permit marks the initial step towards Waymo eventually operating commercially at the airport.

With 250,000 paid trips conducted each week across its various operations in Los Angeles, Phoenix, and the recent addition of Austin, Waymo continues to expand its reach and offer innovative transportation solutions to customers.
