Thiruvananthapuram: Uber has resumed its airport transportation service in Thiruvananthapuram after domestic air travel became near normal.
People can now choose airport pick up and drop in the city. “Riders will be able to access UberGo, Premier and UberXL for safe, reliable and convenient airport travel needs, as permitted by government guidelines,” said a statement from the multinational ride-hailing company.
Ratul Ghosh, head ridesharing, east and south India, Uber, said, “We are pleased to resume services for airport travel in several cities across India. This will bring back earning opportunities for our drivers and we will constantly work with airport authorities to continue to ensure the highest possible hygiene and safety standards for our drivers and riders.”
Uber has launched a comprehensive set of safety measures over the past few weeks, such as the Go online checklist, a mandatory mask policy for both customers and drivers, pre-trip mask verification selfies for drivers and mandatory driver education. It updated its cancellation policy allowing both riders and drivers to cancel trips if they don’t feel safe.
Complementing these measures, Uber distributed over three million masks and 2,00,000 bottles of disinfectants and sanitisers to its driver partners at free of cost.
