Uber partnered with Indian travel platform Ixigo. This collaboration integrates train ticket bookings into the Uber app. It expands Uber's multimodal mobility services in India.
The new feature allows users to book rail tickets and check PNR status. It also enables arranging Uber rides for the first and last legs of their journey. All these functions are available within a single platform.
The collaboration leverages Ixigo's train booking technology and post-booking experience. This connects to Uber's extensive ride-hailing network.
This move builds on Uber's existing intercity travel options in India. These options include long-distance bus tickets and car rentals. Uber aims to become a comprehensive platform for all travel needs.
