BlackLane

Blacklane
Transportation

Uber may be the single greatest use of location technology of our time. It has transformed how people move around, reducing (eliminating?) the need to have a car in most cities, reducing stress on parents about their children getting home, and opening up opportunities to get impaired when going out. Uber offers many services, but sometimes, after a long day/night of travel, you need to book a driver who meets you inside the airport, helps you with your bags, and gets you where you need to go in luxury. That is where Blacklane comes in. They are excellent for an airport pickup when you need them certainly. Returning home from Europe on the 4th of July weekend, when enplanements reached historic highs, was one of those weekends. The airport was a mess, the Uber pickup area required taking the tram, taxi lines were long, and it was boiling out. Therefore, I was pretty excited to learn that my wife had booked a Blacklane car. You need to do it 24 hours in advance; they are especially good in Europe, and it was a true luxury after a long day of travel.
