優(yōu)步現(xiàn)在正在進行大堡礁的潛艇之旅
Uber – arguably the most convenient taxi app – is expanding its network to include the depths of Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.
優(yōu)步——可以說是最方便的出租車應用——正在擴展其網(wǎng)絡,將探索澳大利亞大堡礁的深度包括在內。
‘scUber’ is the world’s first ride-sharing submarine service offering a trip around world’s largest coral reef system.
“scUber”是世界上第一個提供環(huán)繞世界最大珊瑚礁系統(tǒng)的共乘潛艇服務。
It’s certainly a unique way to experience one of the seven wonders of the world.
這無疑是體驗世界七大奇跡之一的一種獨特方式。
Take a look at the five-star ride:
看一看五星旅行吧:
Lucky passengers will travel the journey of lifetime via a two-seater submersible named ‘Barry’, all accessed by way of the app, INSIDER reports.
據(jù)業(yè)內人士報道,幸運的乘客將通過這款應用程序,通過名為“巴里”的雙座潛水器進行終生旅行。
Despite being underwater, scUber will work somewhat similarly to a typical Uber service and passengers can even rate their driver.
盡管在水下,scUber的工作方式與典型的優(yōu)步服務有些相似,乘客甚至可以給司機打分。
Although there’s no word whether they’ll allow you to play your tunes over Bluetooth.
不過目前還不清楚它們是否允許你通過藍牙播放你的音樂。
Queensland-based riders will have to input their destination address as the Great Barrier Reef, before being picked up by helicopter and dropped to Barry’s departure point.
在昆士蘭的乘客必須輸入他們的目的地是大堡礁,然后才會被直升飛機接走并降落到巴里的出發(fā)地點。
Before boarding, scUber will need to know more than just your whereabouts.
在上船之前,scUber需要知道的不僅僅是你的位置。
Ahead of the trip, an operator will call to ask your weight – as well as confirm you hadn’t accidentally booked a trip to the depths of the reef.
旅行前,接線員會打電話詢問你的體重,并確認你沒有意外預定到暗礁深處的旅行。
Unsurprisingly, the hour-long journey is far from cheap.
不出所料,一小時的路程一點也不便宜。
A trip around the Great Barrier Reef will set customers back $2,060 USD for two people (including helicopter drop-off).
兩個人游覽大堡礁的費用為2060美元(包括直升機接送)。
So you really don’t want to be cancelling a ride just as Barry’s coming around the corner.
所以你真的不想在巴里即將到來的時候取消一次旅行。
Uber has rented the Barry submarine and its crew for around four weeks in partnership with Tourism & Events Queensland, promising to ‘match every fare with a donation to Citizens of the Great Barrier Reef’.
優(yōu)步與昆士蘭州旅游局合作,租用了巴里潛艇及其工作人員約四周,并承諾“將為大堡礁的居民提供相應的費用”。
scUber has limited availability and will only be available until June 18.
scUber的服務時間有限,只能持續(xù)到6月18日。
It’s hard to say where Uber could next take its service. Maybe hitch a ride up Everest?
很難說優(yōu)步下一步會在哪里提供服務。也許可以搭個便車爬珠峰?
