A few new features are coming to the Uber app, including one that could make it simpler to pick someone up or cover their ride. The new “Send a Ride” feature allows you to pay for someone else’s Uber ride directly from the app. You set the number of rides and spending limit, then send a link to whoever you want to gift the rides to.
Additionally, John F. Kennedy International Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and Orlando International Airport are now available for Uber Share, which discounts your Uber fare when you share your ride with someone heading in the same direction. The update arrives as airports are still experiencing disruptions that could carry on for a while, even now that the government shutdown has ended.
Another new feature, Uber Ski, makes it easier to reserve an UberXL or UberXXL directly to nearly 40 top ski locations around North America and Europe, and allows you to purchase “Epic” ski and snowboard passes at the same time. Lastly, Uber Eats is getting a Cameo-like feature for the holiday season that will let you add a celebrity video message to gifted Uber Eats orders, including the likes of Megan Thee Stallion, the Jonas Brothers, Jake Shane, and Tracee Ellis Ross.
