Hyperplane
A hyperexpress delivery service that can move objects from any airport to another in under two hours
How does it work?
Hyperexpress is powered by the hyperplane: a first-of-its-kind rocket airplane that travels to near-space heights at 15 times the speed of sound.
Why is it needed?
Time is money, and downtime is particularly costly. Destinus gets the necessary parts to your facility faster than ever before so you can get back online without hurting the bottom line. Sometimes receiving a shipment quickly can be a matter of life or death; for your business, for your deal, or for your patient. Destinus works with existing shipping providers to offer hyperexpress delivery service when you need it most at a comparable price to traditional air cargo transport.
How does it improve life?
In medical emergencies, the most important factor is time. Hyperexpress delivery connects medical supplies with hospitals globally to ensure no one misses a beat. The Hyperplane is fueled with hydrogen fuel which is produced from 100% renewable energy sources to power all hyperplane engines. When the hydrogen is burned the only byproducts are heat and water.
