Uber drivers may soon be allowed to pick up passengers from Sydney Airport as the complex’s operators consider establishing a dedicated pick-up zone.

Currently Uber users are only able to order the more expensive UberBlack service from within the airport precinct.

“Sydney Airport is currently developing new arrangements to accommodate all booked service operators at the airport, including ride-sharing services such as Uber, as well as limousines and pre-booked taxis,” a Sydney Airport spokeswoman said.

What do you think? Do you think Sydney Airport and travellers can benefit from a dedicated Uber Zone?

    1. I’m against all monopolies and for as many options as possible for consumers. Good on SYD for thinking that out. Having said that, it was pretty easy to arrange for a Uber pick up anyway./
