Politics / UBER Will Now Let Teens Ride In Thier Car Alone by Officialetila(m): 10:20pm On May 17, 2023
Uber is rolling out new features to make it easier for people of all ages to access its ride-hailing service, including an option that will let teens under the age of 18 ride alone for the first time.

At its annual product event on Wednesday, Uber unveiled a new teen accounts feature, which allows teens between the ages of 13-17 to hail rides and be in the car on their own. Their parents and guardians can also monitor them remotely through the app.

The new option rolls out on May 22 in more than a dozen metro areas in the United States and Canada – including New York City, Atlanta, Dallas and Houston – with plans to launch in more cities in the coming weeks and months.

Previously, those under the age of 18 were not allowed to use Uber without being accompanied in the car by an adult
Uber’s move comes at a time when tech companies, and social media firms in particular, are increasingly under scrutiny for the impact their products can have on teens.

At Wednesday’s event, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi framed the option as helping families “manage the craziness” of juggling getting their kids around and stressed the company’s safety features to ensure that “parents can have peace of mind.”

The new accounts include a unique PIN number that teens will have to give to their driver before embarking and in-app audio recording of the ride. A live trip-tracking feature also lets a parent follow the trips’ progress via the Uber app. And parents can contact the driver directly during the trip as well as contact Uber’s support team.

Khosrowshahi also said that “only experienced and highly-rated drivers will be eligible to complete trips with teens.”

Uber said it consulted Safe Kids Worldwide, a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting children, with the development of the teens account sharing

Uber also said Wednesday that it is launching a nationwide phone number for anyone without the app to be able to use its service, a move likely aimed at helping older Americans who might not be used to navigating a smartphone.

Starting on Wednesday, US-based customers can now dial 1-833-USE-UBER (1-833-873-8237), a toll free number, to speak with an agent in English or Spanish and request a ride on demand or reserve one for a future trip.

Uber has reported strong growth in recent quarters, defying a slump that has hit much of the tech sector in recent months. Uber’s business, which diversified into meal delivery services ahead of the pandemic, has also so-far fared better at bouncing back from the health crises than its chief US rival, Lyft.

Travel / Re: Private Jets Charter In Nigeria: How Much It Costs by Officialetila(m): 10:41pm On Dec 11, 2019
AutoJoshNG:


Private jets are a rare means of transportation. It offers the ultimate travel experience.

Generally, this means of transportation is considered as the exclusive preserve of the nouveau riche; that is, politicians, super-rich celebrities and business people, etc.

One does not need to own a Private Jet to fly one. There are Private Jets that are available for hire.

The need to hire one might be for a number of reasons, and not necessarily for pleasure. A Private Jet could be chartered due to the need to save valuable time. It could be hired for an emergency, such as to airlift someone to seek medical attention, etc.

Indeed, hiring a private jet is not exactly cheap. However, many Nigerians can afford it.

So, how much does it cost to hire a private jet?



Well, the service does not come at a flat rate. The cost is determined by several factors.

For instance, the cost can be determined by factors such as location, aircraft type and size, passenger capacity, timings, and of course the distance of the flight.

In Nigeria, several companies offer private jet charter services. These companies can be found in major Nigerian cities like Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt. The cost of hiring their aircraft is similar, though each can come with slight variations.

In this post, Autojosh.com will attempt to throw some light on the cost involved in a private jet charter.

Duration

Different private jet charter companies offer different rates. However, one thing that is common to all of them is that the rates are mostly according to the duration (hours) of the flight. In other words, the calculation is per hour.

In Nigeria, most private jet charter companies charge as much as $3,000 – $6,000 US dollars for one hour. So, a $3,000 private hire will amount to approximately ₦1.08 Million Naira.

Note, it takes about 45mins to 1 hour to travel between most Nigerian cities.

In order to have an estimate of the actual cost of hiring a jet, you should contact the customer care section of the jet charter company you want to patronize and ask for a quote.

Things To Know About Flying Private Jets

When flying a private jet in Nigeria, there are certain things you need to know.

For instance, except it is an international flight, you will not need your International passport while flying to cities in Nigeria. However, it is important that you should have other forms of identification such as ID card, etc. You will need it to identify yourself at the checkpoint.

Also, pets are allowed on board a private jet. But the pets must be accompanied by its documentation.

Unlike commercial airlines, private jets have the advantage of operating from a large number of airports which change based on client requirements.

In Nigeria, one can pay for a private jet charter in Naira, but the prefered currency is in US Dollars. One can make payment using their VISA debit and credit cards, MasterCard, Bank drafts/deposit Etc.

In case a flight departure destination is very far from the home base of the jet, the re-positioning costs will be included in the overall charter price.

Lastly, most private jets provide refreshments for their clients/customers on board.


How to Group Charter A Private Jet



There is a popular misconception attached to hiring private jets. And it is that it can only happen if you are a billionaire or a multi-millionaire. Well, that is not exactly true.

For a relatively small amount, one can actually fly in a private jet. Well, this can happen if you are part of a group charter.

For instance, if an hour private jet charter is $3,000, it can be split among 10 friends planning to travel to the same destination. This will leave each passenger with $300 bill (₦ 108,000) to pay.

So, with just N108, 000, you can experience what it means to fly in a private jet.

In conclusion, it is important to say here that the cost of chartering a private jet is negotiable. Most Private Jet charter companies would not mind offering a significant discount than have their aircraft idling away at the hangar.

Do you want to hire a private jet? Then contact us at Autojosh. We will be happy to guide you through.
