A vertical landing is performed by an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicle above a charger where the eVTOL vehicle includes a rotor that is configured to rotate during an occupant change state to keep the eVTOL vehicle stationary during the occupant change state. The eVTOL communicates with an area controller to receive an assignment of the charger from the plurality of chargers in the area based at least on part on an occupancy status of the charger. The charger is located in an area that includes a plurality of chargers. A male charging port that is part of the eVTOL vehicle and a female charging port that is part of the charger are detachably coupled and a battery in the eVTOL vehicle is charged using the charger while the male charging port and the female charging port are detachably coupled.
