Don’t Be Spooked by Halloween!

Getting around on Halloween doesn’t have to be frightening!

Lots of ghosts and ghouls will need rides this Friday night, and we’ll be here to be the most reliable option in town. Kick off Halloween weekend with all the knowledge you’ll need to get around safely and conveniently.

Treat yourself to our smart tips below, and remember, there are no tricks here – you’ll always know the rate before you request.

Surge pricing allows us to remain reliable, even on one of the busiest nights of the year. Our rates will float in real time with fluctuations in supply and demand. Increased rates incentivize more driver partners to get on the roads and ensure those who need a ride won’t be left stranded.

The graph and tips below should help you navigate demand and make sure your All Hallows’ Eve is full of treats.
