Airport Shuttle FAQ

What is Shuttle?

Uber Shuttle is a service that runs to and from airports between designated pick-up and drop-off locations. You can reserve from 3 to 7 days before your travel date for yourself and up to three other passengers to travel in a high-quality, safe shuttle. You can book up to 2 minutes before the scheduled departure time.

All riders 2 years or older require a ticket and to be seated with a seat belt. Up to one rider per guardian under the age of 2 may travel for free. Riders must be 18 years of age, unless accompanied by an adult.

Ticket Fare Structure

Uber Shuttle fare is based on the pickup, dropoff, time of booking, time of travel, and number of seats you select plus relevant taxes (if applied in your city).

You can view the fare breakdown in your Uber app when booking.

Payment for your Shuttle must be made via the Uber app. Cash is not accepted on board the Shuttle, and it is not possible to board the Shuttle without prior reservation.

Luggage allowance on Shuttle

The below allowance is included in your ticket’s fare:

Each rider is permitted to bring on board: * One piece of luggage (standard carry-on) recommended dimension 22x14x9 inches weighing up to 45lbs/20.5kg. * One personal item which must fit on your lap or under your seat.

To bring additional luggage, you must book extra seats for each additional item. This helps our drivers accommodate you better and prevents any issues during the trip.

Booking trips

You can view schedules and seat availability in the Uber app. Up to 5 seats can be reserved from 3 to 7 days in advance. By booking in advance, you ensure your seat is reserved for your trip. Seats can fill up fast, so be sure to reserve early!
