A wingless personal air transport comprises two main sections: First, a substantially horizontal circular inner platform (12) is provided with its outer extremity having a first diameter D1. This inner platform (12) has a seat (22) for carrying at least one person (29, 30) and a shroud forming a smooth upper surface extending outward and downward to its outer extremity. Second, a substantially horizontal annular outer platform (14) is arranged coaxially with the inner platform (12). This outer platform (14) has a central opening with a second diameter D2 and a shroud forming a substantially smooth upper surface extending inward and downward into its central opening. The second diameter D2 is greater than said first diameter D1. Preferably at least five thrusters (18, 20) are arranged in the space between the platforms (12, 14) to provide a downward thrust of air, and a clear plastic hemispherical bubble is arranged on top of the inner platform to protect the passengers (29, 30) and provide for smooth air flow.
