Lyft starts operating out of Las Vegas' McCarran airport
Las Vegas' notoriously long airport taxi lines might get just a little shorter. Today, ride-sharing platform Lyft announced that it would be operating out of Sin City's McCarran airport. Both Lyft and Uber began operating within the city last month. But don't expect to see Lyft drivers lining up with cabs. Passengers looking for the pink moustache will have to journey to the parking garages across from their terminals and find the designated pick-up area. Uber on the other hand, is still working on airport access.
Jason Radisson, general manager of Uber Nevada told Engadget: "Uber is dedicated to serving riders and drivers at McCarran, and to continuing a thorough process with Airport Officials. Our priority is to reach a resolution that ensures rider and driver safety along with the best user experience, as quickly as possible."
While Lyft is first, expect an Uber taking you from the airport to your favorite craps table in the near future.
