Uber will soon allow UK users to book plane tickets: Will SA follow suit?
Updated | By Jacaranda FM
This sounds Uber cool...
A simple system of getting people from point A to B has allowed Uber to somewhat monopolise the private taxi industry.
But the best part is that it's not just in one country, but around the world. That's how you know you've come full circle as a brand, when people all over the world know who you are and use your service on the daily.
On that note, Uber recently announced that they plan to launch a service to UK users where they will be able to book plane, train, and coach tickets on the app.
Now that's a smart and innovative way of staying current, whilst also making a bold move in dominating as a one-stop transportation application for all kinds of travellers.
"While Uber will not be providing these services itself, it hopes the offering will create a 'seamless experience' for booking a wide range of travel options. Rail and coach tickets, as well as car rental services will be available through several partners that will be fully integrated into the Uber app." (Daily Mail)
So the burning question on everyone's mind - especially those Uber die-hards: Is Uber SA thinking of rolling out this one-stop shop too, and if yes, when can we expect to see it trialled?
