With only a few days to go, the New Year's Eve countdown is officially on! Your plans are set, your outfit is picked out, and you have a nice bottle of champagne chilling in the fridge. The only thing left? Finding out how you'll get around town on one of the busiest nights of the year. The last thing you want to do is stand curbside and flail your arm around or waste time praying that surge pricing will stop (yeah, right). But we've got you covered with the best taxi rate in the city come NYE—all rides within SF are only $10 via Flywheel.
With Flywheel's #SurgeFreeNYE, you can indulge in that extra glass of bubbly without worrying about your ride home breaking the bank. It's the epitome of fair, friendly transportation—any ride starting and ending within SF will be set at the flat rate of $10. If the meter goes above $50, you pay the difference, but all other rides are set at $10. And if you plan on heading outside SF, you'll pay regular taxi meter rates—no more surge prices.
#SurgeFreeNYE begins at 8 PM on December 31, running until 3 AM on New Year's Day. To get started, download the free Flywheel app on iOS and Android. A licensed, commercially insured taxi driver—one who's passed a fingerprint background check—will pick you up and take you wherever you need to go. And with 80% of SF cabs (over a thousand drivers) currently on the platform, your cabbie's arrival time won't be long.
Have a safe, surge-free, and happy New Year!
