For what it's worth, I work on research that will ultimately define the rules for package delivering drones and Uber air taxis (both of which fall under the umbrella term "Urban Air Mobility"). Even as I work on these things, I have serious doubts about their technical and economic feasibility, but I'm fairly certain that there will be a regulatory framework (in the US anyway) in place within the next decade to allow them if they are otherwise viable. Incidentally, it would cost you ~$10k-20k to get a sport pilot's license, but that would basically allow you to own and operate a non-autonomous flying car today if it were technically and economically feasible.
