CHICAGO, Sept. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — International travel and transportation company GOWithUs.com, (formerly GO Airport Shuttle) reports that searches for lower cost airport shuttles on its website have reached the highest level in a 12-month period for three consecutive months.
This indicates travelers are seeking alternatives to expensive ride-share companies which add high surge prices during peak times of inclement weather.
While GO operators suspended shared ride services during the height of COVID, many are bringing Shared Ride options back and adding economy priced private services to accommodate budget-minded travelers.

According to the World Travel & Tourism Council, the travel sector’s GDP contribution will account for 7.6 percent of the U.S. economy in 2022.
“GO wanted to do its part to help encourage people to travel for leisure, business or both by addressing their financial concerns,” adds McCarthy.
