Ahead of what is forecast to be a record-breaking travel season, Uber is looking to make things easier when you need to get to or from the airport.

One of the new facets of the pre-takeoff or post-landing experience is a new type of rideshare: Uber XXL is being introduced for large groups. 

Available at 60 airports worldwide – including 40 in the U.S. — Uber XXL gives travelers more space for luggage and themselves after flying in, Uber said in a press release. 

Not looking for an Uber XXL? Well, the rideshare giant also unveiled a new option for a shared ride to the airport, a feature that was previously unavailable.  

However, LAX is not one of the airports that will have the update implemented; UberX shares are available at several airports across the country as well as at two international destinations: Amsterdam and Madrid. 

Also included in the sweeping updates are new Uber Reserve features, which allow travelers to schedule their ride to the airport in advance. 

Not only that but Uber’s new Flight Capture feature functions as a hub for all travel information; upon entering their flight details into the app, travelers will be alerted by Uber if their flight is delayed or cancelled and will have the option to reschedule the ride they booked ahead of time. 

There is now also an option to add a home screen widget for Apple products, which will allow travelers to book a ride “in as little as two taps.”  

Also among the updates are upgrades to Uber’s shuttle service; however, the expansion is only currently serving LaGuardia Airport in New York, although more airports should begin offering shuttle service in the future. 

“With packed crowds, inevitable delays and busy schedules, holiday travel can feel like a lot,” Uber said in a media release. “That’s why we’re launching new products and features to help make your airport travel experience smoother.” 

“Whatever your plans are this holiday season, Uber is here to make them a bit more effortless,” the company added. 

Uber’s new features come as experts predict the 2024 holiday season will be the busiest travel season on record. According to AAA, nearly 80 million Americans are expected to travel for Thanksgiving this year.
