Riders can also cash in on a free UberCHOPPER
ride of the Las Vegas Strip
Sprint (NYSE:S) is teaming up with Uber to help attendees skip
the long cab lines during CES®. Building on previous successful
collaborations with Uber, Sprint is providing free UberX rides (up
to $10) from the Las Vegas Strip or McCarran International Airport
to the Las Vegas Convention Center from Jan. 5-8.
It’s simple and easy for CES attendees to take advantage of this
offer. Uber enables users to simply push a button and find out how
to get a ride. Riders simply have to open the Uber app and they
will see a special Sprint vehicle view that riders can select to
take an Uber to or from the convention center for free up to $10.
This will be available to riders from the Strip or downtown. It’s a
seamless way to get to the Las Vegas Convention Center and with $10
off your ride, there’s no better time to tap the app!
In addition to free rides to the convention center, Sprint is
also providing free UberCHOPPER rides1 of the Las Vegas Strip from
Jan. 5 through Jan. 8. Just open the Uber app and enter the promo
code “SPRINTCHOPPER” to unlock the free promotion. Once the ride
has been initiated, an Uber will pick up riders from the Convention
Center and take them to the UberCHOPPER lounge at the Maverick
helipad. They will then board a helicopter and fly high above the
Strip.
"Our continued partnership with Uber brings exciting and unique
offers to this year’s CES attendees,” said Jim Hyde, president,
Affiliates and Wholesale-Sprint. “Sprint is making sure CES
attendees will be transported in style with UberX rides to the Las
Vegas Convention Center and a premium view of the Las Vegas Strip
after the show from a free UberCHOPPER ride.”
Riders who take advantage of this great offer will also have the
opportunity to receive a $200 Uber rider credit when they switch to
Sprint2.
“Collaborating with Uber allows us to deliver innovative offers
that provide value to consumers, which is exactly what Sprint and
Uber are all about,” Hyde said.
“We are excited to partner with Sprint to provide a reliable and
affordable transportation option for CES attendees,” said Eric
Wimer, Uber general manager. “Navigating Las Vegas during CES just
got a whole lot easier with free rides of up to $10 sponsored by
Sprint.”
Now is the perfect time to switch to Sprint and get the Best
Unlimited Plan – unlimited data, talk and text. Customers can get
two lines of Unlimited for $100 a month and enjoy unlimited mobile
optimized streaming videos, gaming, music and data3. And, unlimited
4G LTE data for most everything else, all while on the Sprint
Network.
