Not to be trite, but "people who live here, or people who are traveling here" is sort of their target market.

- ghaff 3y agoSo now you'll have the in-city checkin version and the in-airport checkin version? Because you definitely need parking and rental cars somewhere convenient. "Here" means a greater area serviced by a large airport which is a lot more than a city. There probably would even be a market for an in-city bag drop service. But it wouldn't replace people driving to the airport.
- TylerE 3y agoIf the airport wasn’t way outside town, many of those people wouldn’t need to park, as they could just take public transit or an Uber, and the same would also mean that many people traveling in won’t need to rent a car.
- bluGill 3y agoIn the us transit isn't normally good enough. most people rent a car. I wish that would change.
- ghaff 3y agoI pretty much never rent a car if I'm going into a city. But I'm often not actually going into the city that an airport services.
- TylerE 3y agoHeck, I drive most places (disclaimer: I mean "actual cities" here) in my own car, but I'll just leave it at the hotel and get around via Uber primarily, but I'll happily use subway or light rail or something like that when it's available and the end points are close. I have somewhat limited mobility these days so I can't just trek 10 or 12 blocks at both ends of every journey like I know some of y'all do in places like Seattle, but anything up to 4 or 5 blocks I can manage unless it's extremely hot.
