Uber launches ski transfer service from Grenoble railway station

Six resorts to be available with flat fare

Uber has announced the launch of UberSki, a short-term station-to-ski resort transfer service in the French city of Grenoble.

UberSki, available on the Uber app, enables skiers to continue their journey to one of a number of popular resorts in the French Alps.

When a customer requests UberSki from Grenoble railway station, a vehicle will arrive to bring clients to one of six alpine ski resorts at a flat fare.

These resorts are l’Alpe d’Huez, Les Deux Alpes, Chamrousse, Les Sept Laux, Villard-de-Lans and L’Alpe du Grand Serre.

UberSki will be available from February 9 to March 10, 2019, and bookings can be made in English.

The app has previously launched UberBoat, which allows you to get around the Croatian islands, as well as UberCopter, which offers bookable helicopter rides across the Côte d’Azur during popular periods for holidaymakers, including the duration of the Cannes Film Festival.
