After their innovations via the Uber Black and Uber X, Uber Manila has finally brought their services in the sky.
As an added info, the chopper will fly a fixed 10-minute route which means you will not be able to request your own destination. The rider must be 18 years old and above, holding a Philippine government based ID with birthday indicated. They clarified that they are not a direct air carrier.
Via an email to us and a post to their Facebook page post, they will be introducing the UberChopper in partnership with AirTrav
At that day from 8 am to 10 am, they will be giving away free and limited rides for 3 persons per ride (you and 2 of your friends) in an aerial tour of the city. To have a chance, open the Uber app at that date and times and slide to the UberChopper option, set your pick up location and request button. An UberBlack will take you and your friends to the helipad. The UberBlack service is also free of charge.
