How will Uber Book work?
In this new model, bookings can be made up to 30 days in advance, allowing users to better organize themselves for their trips. According to the company, the service is indicated for moments of “greater predictability”, such as attending an important event, going to a doctor who has already been booked or going to the airport, for example.
Riders can check the fare on Uber Reserve when they request it, just like any other option in the app. Thus, according to Uber, the calculation includes the price for that category, plus the booking fee, with the extra amount being passed on to the driver who provided the service.
Benefits for drivers
In addition to the fact that passengers can plan their important errands already scheduled, Uber rides also benefit registered drivers. According to the company, the new model helps employees choose the opportunities that best suit their day-to-day work.
In addition, app drivers are not obliged to accept these trips made by scheduling through users. However, if they accept the reservation, they will be entitled to an additional fee for the service provided. In this case, it is enough to be present at the place communicated by the passenger on the scheduled date and time.
prior scheduling
In this way, the races through the resource “Uber Book” must be made at least two hours in advance, so that drivers can plan accordingly. Plus, they have an extra 15 minutes of cooldown time to give you more flexibility when starting your run.
