Uber collaborates with Kolkata Airport Authority

04 Mar 2024 CW Team

Uber has revealed a collaboration with the Airports Authority of India (AAI) at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International (NSCBI) Airport in Kolkata, West Bengal.

It was announced that specific pickup areas within the arrival terminal for both domestic and international flights will be implemented through this partnership. Uber is set to provide on-site support and clear directional signage, ensuring passengers are guided seamlessly from the terminal to the designated Uber pickup zones.

In April 2023, an MoU was signed between Uber and AAI, extending services at various AAI Airports. Uber operations are already active in more than 10 AAI Airports.

Cashless operations have been introduced at NSCBI Airport in collaboration with Omega Enterprises, aiming to eliminate parking and pickup charges for Uber drivers. This move is expected to reduce estimated arrival times (ETAs) for riders, ensuring smooth airport transfers.

Shiva Shailendran, Director of Supply Operations at Uber India and South Asia, mentioned, "Our focus is on reshaping the travel experience, and this partnership with the Airports Authority of India will assist us in delivering an elevated experience for both drivers and riders. We remain committed to providing a magical experience every time you choose Uber for your city travel.?

The collaboration's objective is to offer passengers reliable and hassle-free transportation options upon their arrival in Kolkata, as stated by the company.
