Uber has recently announced that it will be rolling out a new Flight Function as it will offer domestic and international flight bookings in the UK with plans to expand the offer across the nation within weeks. This aims to work towards the goal of becoming a 'super app' travel and will let users book an entire journey including multiple forms of transport.
The function in the UK is part of its goal to create a "seamless door-to-door travel solution." For users in the country, the new function will be a part of the app's ability to book coach tickets including National Express and Megabus, as well as train bookings through the National Rail network and Eurostar.
