Can ride-pooling service Via catch up to Uber and Lyft by being the friendly alternative?
Can ride-pooling service Via catch up to Uber and Lyft by being the friendly alternative?This month Via hit 50 million rides, versus Uber’s 10 billion and Lyft’s 500 million–but with much less of the vitriol, and productive relationships with the cities in which it operates.

Via Rideshare: Get Shared Rides for Less
Much like Uber and Lyft, Via may charge extra fees for drop-offs at special destinations (like Chicago’s Navy Pier), though you’ll always see these fees upfront before you ride. You can see real-time rates in your Via app. A $3 fee may also apply for no-shows and cancellations, which is actually $2 cheaper than Uber cancellation fees.

  • I'm so confused, please help! the camp wristband are not supposed to come with camping already? why is divided in 2....help
    They intended this as a way for someone to purchase JUST a HL wristband to join another HL campsite and carpool with them. Alternatively if you JUST have a HL wristband you can camp in a tent only HL area but you still won't be able to drive your vehicle on site. You'll either need to park offsite and shuttle in (details TBD) or you'll need to take the EF shuttle (run through bus.com) from one of the... Source: 5 months ago
  • Shuttle Experience
    The shuttle was okay for me. Day 1 I had an extra shuttle pass and had tried to change the name on the ticket to my friend's name and bus.com said that the name change wasn't needed, just scan the ticket when you board. So I was a little relieved. When my friend tried to use the ticket, the shuttle guys were refusing to give him a wristband because the ticket didn't match his name. And we argued with them for a...

  • Shuttle
    Yep. Shuttle info probably in the new year. It's usually with bus.com and they have detailed info on where it picks up and drops off. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Questions for those flying in:

    A relatively average Uber trip maybe ≈$10, one way. In fact, uber.com estimates the trip from Pub on King to Marshall street (for example) to be $9.00, one way. Source: over 1 year ago
