The holidays can be hectic – from flights, to family visits, and all the shopping in between. That’s why we’re rolling out a series of new products and features to help make this season less stressful and more joyful. From vacation planning, to airport rides, and of course gifting, Uber has you covered this holiday season.

Here’s what’s new: 

⛷️Uber Ski hits the slopes across the globe⛷️

As winter approaches and millions prepare their skis and boards for mountain adventures, Uber is introducing a new seasonal offering to help you reach your favorite winter destinations worldwide: Uber Ski.

For the first time, Uber is teaming up with Vail Resorts – the world’s largest mountain resort operator – for a seamless integration that allows you to book an Uber Reserve and purchase your Epic Pass – directly through the Uber app. 

With Uber Ski, riders can reserve vehicles with larger trunk space, up to 90 days in advance – perfect for up to four passengers and all their gear. Paired with an Epic Pass, you’ll have seamless access to nearly 40 of the top mountains across North America and Europe.

Just tap the Uber Ski icon to hit the slopes!

🚘 Ubers on me 🚘 

Getting loved ones from A to B just got easier. Our new in-app ‘Send a Ride’ feature lets you cover an Uber trip for someone else – in just a few taps! It’s perfect for picking up a loved one from the airport, getting clients to a meeting, or ensuring your parents arrive at the family dinner right on time.

Simply set the number of rides and your spending limit (for example, two rides up to $50 each), then we’ll generate a unique link that you can send to the rider through any messaging app. Once the rider taps the link, the credit is saved to their Uber Wallet and automatically applied to their next trip – no promo codes or extra steps needed.

✈️ Expanding Uber Share at Airports ✈️

As flight delays and cancellations continue throughout the country, your Uber ride home from the airport is the one leg of the journey we don’t want you worrying about. Just in time for the holidays, Uber Share is launching at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and Orlando International Airport (MCO).

Building on recent U.S. expansions at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW), and Dallas Love Field (DAL), plus rollouts internationally, Uber Share is now available at over 50 airports worldwide. 

With Uber Share, travelers can be matched with just one other rider headed in a similar direction and save up to 25% compared to their UberX fare, even if they’re not paired with a co-rider.

🎁 Gifting, upgraded 🎁 

Forgot to grab a gift for the office Secret Santa—or for that cousin who made a surprise appearance? With Uber Eats, last-minute gifting is easier than ever, bringing holiday cheer straight to their doorstep. 

This December, Uber Eats is teaming up with some of your favorite stars to make holiday gifting even more memorable. When you use our “Send as a Gift” feature through the Uber Eats app, you’ll soon be able to include a video from a panel of special holiday helpers including Megan Thee Stallion, the Jonas Brothers, Jake Shane, or Tracee Ellis Ross – for no additional charge. Whether it’s your TikTok-obsessed Gen Z cousin or your “Hottie” roommate, this two-in-one surprise guarantees gifting hero status.

To add a celebrity video or to record your own video message, simply tap “Send as a Gift” at checkout, choose your video, and include your note. Plus, recipients can now choose and schedule a delivery time that works best for them, so your thoughtful surprise always arrives just right.
