打车软件将在杭州推"叫飞机"服务 每人收费数千元


Uber方面明确表示，"一键叫飞机"业务在杭州正式"上线"的时间就在下个月。"这个业务肯定是会推出的，飞机的报批手续已经准备妥当，目前正在定场地。"半个月前，相关负责人曾透露，他们做的依然是平台功能，提供飞行服务的是有着通用航空资质的代理公司。




(ECNS) -- U.S.-based online taxi booking service Uber will introduce a helicopter service in Hangzhou, a tourist hub in East China's Zhejiang province, in May, local newspaper Morning Express reported Wednesday.


The helicopter service meets relevant aviation regulations and is now finalizing details, according to the report. Uber will work as a general aviation agent to facilitate supply and demand.


Wang Gang, marketing director of Uber's Hangzhou branch, said that at present there will only be one route available from Banyan Tree hotel, located in the Xixi wetland park, flying across West Lake and returning along Qiantang River.


The helicopter will have four to six seats, and the standard cost will be several thousand yuan for a 20-minute flight.


Uber's flight service is more like air travel, instead of regular transportation, the report says.


Many people say the price is too expensive, though some think it could be worthwhile for special occasions, such as a birthdays or anniversaries.


Zhejiang is a highly developed province and home to many private planes, mainly located in Hangzhou, Yiwu, Ningbo and Wenzhou.


A 5S shop for airplanes recently opened in Ningbo. 5S refers to a dealer that offers sales, surveys, spare parts, services and supplements in the same location.
