With the holidays right around the corner8+ Archives Uber rolled out a new size option called "UberXXL," a new option to share Ubers from the airport, and new features for Uber Reserve — all features aimed at making traveling to and from the airport a little easier.

As you may have guessed, UberXXL accommodates riders with lots of baggage, which can come in handy for people traveling home for the holidays or going on vacation. UberXXL provides bigger cars with access to more trunk space and enough room left over for all of the travelers in your group, so you're not stuck holding your suitcase on your lap. To access UberXXL, riders must be Uber One subscribers, which costs $10 a month. Uber One also eliminates Uber Eats delivery fees and includes other perks. UberXXL is available in 60 airports worldwide, with 40 of those in the U.S.

The popular UberX Share now has expanded access to airports. So if you get to your destination late, you can worry less about whether to take public transport or an expensive ride. UberX Share works by matching you with a co-rider with a similar destination and costs less than a fully private ride. Riders can save up to 25 percent of the normal price of an Uber by taking UberX Share. Plus, even if they don't match with a co-rider, users who choose the option still get the savings. UberX Share for airports is launching in the U.S. in Austin, Denver, Newark, Dulles (Washington DC), Miami, New Orleans, Phoenix, San Francisco and internationally in Amsterdam and Madrid, with more airports to come.

A critical feature for early morning flights is Uber Reserve, which lets you book rides ahead of time. As of today, riders can add their flight details when reserving a ride, which gives them a recommended best time to leave. Additionally, the feature can track flights and ask riders if they want to update their reservation if a flight is delayed.

Last but not least, you can now book multi-stop rides with Uber Reserve. This might come in handy if you're picking up family members or need to grab something on your way to the airport.
