How to take back-to-back trips

After a few trips with Uber, you’ll start seeing new trip requests while you’re still on a trip. By accepting these back-to-back trips, you’ll spend more time earning and less time waiting.

Steps to complete a back-to-back trip

Here’s what to know when your app starts showing you back-to-back requests:

1. When the trip request appears, tap to accept.

2. The dark blue line on the map shows where to go to drop off your current rider.

3. The light blue line shows how to get to your next rider. It’s that simple.

How back-to-back trips earn you more

By accepting a future trip while on a current one, you’ll ensure that you’re putting every minute of your driving time into earning.
