LIFT airline has partnered with Uber

LIFT airline has partnered with Uber to enable passengers to book a premium airport pick-up with an hour of wait time included in their fare. The promotion runs only for august.

Passengers have up to 30 days before their flight and can cancel their trip request free of charge up to one hour before the scheduled time. Included in the feature is flight tracking integration that automatically adjusts the reservation time based on flight information to help make sure that the driver is ready and waiting at the airport when the flight lands, irrespective of whether it’s on time, early or delayed.

LIFT passengers who book and fly with LIFT can save up to 40% on the cost of their trips to and from selected airports pre-booked using the Uber app. They will receive a promotional code sent by LIFT, that will provide the passenger with an amount off the cost of up to two rides to/from the arrival and departure airports.

Airport Reserve is available on Uber Black and Uber Comfort at Cape Town International Airport, and Johannesburg’s OR Tambo and Lanseria airports.

“LIFT continues to focus on technology to improve our passengers’ experience throughout the travel journey. This is why LIFT is working with Uber on the launch of its brand-new Airport Reserve product, offering travellers an even easier and more affordable way to get to and from the airport,” says Jonathan Ayache, CEO of LIFT Airlines.

“We’re thrilled to be working with Uber. LIFT and Uber have a lot in common; both flexible brands trying to make travel easy for consumers, and this offering seamlessly completes trips door-to-door,” adds Ayache.
