In addition, the business is introducing “Directions to Pickup,” a new tool that will employ step-by-step in-app instructions to take passengers from their gate to the airport’s Uber pickup location. According to Uber, the new capability is already accessible at 30 airports worldwide, with plans to extend to additional airports “in the coming months.”
Walking ETAs, which will predict how long it will take to travel from your gate to the baggage claim, will also be available “soon,” making it easier to determine when to seek a ride from the service. Uber claims that when it does start, it will be accessible at more than 400 airports across the globe.
