ZIPAIR Tokyo Launches ‘Seat Plus’ for In-flight Additional Seat Purchases
Taxi App ‘GO’ Launches Carpooling Service in Tokyo Bay Area This Winter
GO will start a carpooling service with taxi operators via its taxi app ‘GO’ this winter.
Considering the importance of maintaining a balance between supply and demand, the service will be launched in the Tokyo Bay area, including Toyosu and Kachidoki, where there are high demand movements mainly to terminal stations such as Tokyo Station, and where stations, large commercial facilities, and hospitals are concentrated.
Initially, passengers can choose their pick-up and drop-off spots from a predetermined list of multiple locations within the area, which helps to reduce detours as much as possible, ensuring efficient operation.
The fare will be set at about 50-60% of the regular taxi fare regardless of the number of co-passengers, with the presence of co-passengers confirmed prior to the trip.
