Now, users can book their rides up to a week in advance, ensuring a dependable ride is ready for them regardless of any internet disruptions.
This ‘Later Booking’ feature is perfect for a variety of needs: students scheduling rides to classes, office workers planning their commute, or even those arranging airport pickups and special events. To use it, just open the Careem app, choose your ride type, select the “NOW” dropdown menu, and set your preferred time.
The system is equipped with multiple checks to ensure a smooth, timely journey. Careem will confirm the captain’s availability, provide a 15-minute waiting period after their arrival, and ensure the best vehicles, like sedans driven by experienced captains, are at your service.
Imran Saleem, General Manager of Ride-Hailing at Careem Pakistan, shared his thoughts on the new feature:
“Mobility is a crucial part of our daily lives, and customers depend on us to move freely. We’re aware of the unique challenges in our market and are committed to introducing features that simplify and enhance our users’ lives. Whether it’s a student heading to class or a professional going to a key meeting, the ‘Later Booking’ feature is here to cater to their needs and make their travel experience smoother.”
