Uber mulls GDS partnership

UBER is considering
making its scheduled
rides bookable on the
GDS, says Shavaye
Govender, Lead:
Partnerships & Uber
for Business of Uber
Sub-Saharan Africa.
Shavaye says this would
allow travel agents to
offer their clients multiple
options to get around in
cities where safe, reliable
and affordable options
are not always available,
making the entire journey
more seamless.
However, Shavaye
emphasises that nothing
has been confirmed yet.
If Uber is to join the GDS
in SA, it will only take
place once it has been
introduced in First World
markets.
