Uber displays average wait time and ride expenses in thousands of cities.
- Uber announced that it will launch the tool on Tuesday, and it will be accessible to all customers in the near future.
- Uber announced that riders will have the option to make reservations for future trips.
- The app's average wait times and prices are based on recent historical aggregated data of Uber trips.
On Tuesday, the company announced the launch of a new feature that displays average wait times and ride costs in over 10,000 cities.
As record numbers of travelers are passing through U.S. airports, a feature designed to simplify summer travel planning is now available.
Uber provides average wait times and prices for on-demand and reserved trips in a city based on historical aggregated data. Customers can view the cost for a specific route at a specific date and time, but cannot currently adjust the settings to check wait and cost for different times of the day.
Riders can make reservations for upcoming trips and access the tool by opening the app and tapping "Where to?" and selecting "search in a different city."
Uber announced that the tool will be available for all customers in the coming days, with some users seeing the latest update beginning Tuesday.
