Lyft (LYFT) is reviving shared rides at US airports amid rising travel-related costs, Bloomberg reported Monday, citing a company spokesperson.
Lyft is piloting pooled rides at airports in Austin, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New Orleans, and San Francisco, a company spokesperson told the news outlet, adding that costs for those pooled rides are cheaper by as much as 20% than regular Lyft trips.
The spokesperson said that the company is "aware" of rising overheads related to airport travel and is exploring ways to make ridesharing more affordable to a broader range of travelers, according to Bloomberg.
