Uber will let you see average fares and wait times for different cities


10,000 cities globally.

With the Summer Olympics set to begin later this month, Uber used Paris as an example of the type of city in which people would be interested in gaining more insight about travel. After selecting Paris, you can book a virtual car trip from any two locations to see how long the ride will last, or you can request more information about average fares and wait times. The company is also offering a number of other perks in connection with the Olympics, including a partnership with Flying Blue, the loyalty program for Air France-KLM Group, and champagne tours and river cruises bookable through the Uber app.
