When Uber has a big week the whole city is energised and pumped to have a HUGE weekend!

Melbourne Cup saw big surge early in the morning and constant trips throughout the day as people jumped from venue to venue after the races!

Get amped up for this weekend. Prep your car, stock your minties & water and get ready to pump!

Download the Driver App to your phone as a back up and grab an air freshener from the Driver Drop-in Centre!


G20


G20 will have a major impact with international travellers hopping into Ubers, Road Closures, and Brisbane Residents moving around the road closures!


DRIVER CORNER – RIDER FEEDBACK

  1. The Rider experience is KEY to 5 stars and Riders riding again and again! Greeting your Rider, offering a water & mint, and engaging with your Rider is what makes Uber different and gets you 5 STARS!
  2. Communication ensures safe pickups and drop-offs for yourself and the Rider. Use your discretion when pulling over as the city is ramping up for G20!
  3. Use the in-App navigation & go directly to the pin to ensure you are at the right spot before contacting the rider.

Riders & Drivers are loving Uber! It’s what we are all about.

Real people making a real impact on their lives and in the world! See it all here!

Let’s change Queensland for the better!
