Uber is not really a taxi company. They do a whole lot of general transport infrastructure not for laymen.

But 36k still seems absurd.

I saw a ferry in a YouTube video the other day that had "Uber Boat" plastered on the side.

The public transport boats in London are operated by Uber

They now also sell Eurostar tickets (although I don't see the advantage over Eurostars website)

They're sponsored by Uber, that's it - they bought the naming rights. The actual boats are owned and run by the Thames Clipper company.

Thanks for the correction, I assumed Uber ran the ticketing as well for some reason, I haven't taken one since the uber branding

Was amusing getting the notification for "$35" Eurostar tickets on the Uber app, when it should be £35, very on brand.

When I was in Dubai, there were Uber helicopters. I'm still half tempted to take one when I'm back there.
