We all hate ubering from the airport. Too much traffic and so little time to arrive to your destinations. Have no fear! UberCopter is here!

Uber is offering a very unique was to avoid traffic on your way to the airport. Uber, infamous for ride-sharing, will allow active users the access to #UberCopter . This new service helicopter will transport passengers in NYC from Manhattan to John F. Kennedy airport.

According to reports, the helicopter flies to and from a small airport by the Staten Island Ferry terminal, and a car will transport passengers to and from their respective airports. #Uber says the cost will be $200.00 per rid and it covers the cost of car transportation.

The feature is only open to Platinum and Diamond members of Uber. Uber will evolve this feature into Uber Elevate, an aerial ridesharing proposal that will eventually offer “an affordable shared flight” according to USA Today. We hope this will solve issues for Uber users and will be a safe, enjoyable experience!
