Uber CEO Travis Kalanick says his company is buying plane tickets for stranded drivers now that a federal judge has put a hold on President Donald Trump’s ban on travel to the United States by people from seven Muslim-majority countries. Kalanick tweeted Friday night that the head of litigation for the San Francisco-based ride-hailing company is “buying a whole bunch of airline tickets ASAP!”

So Uber customers can expect to pay a little more.
Nice!/s
.
UBER drivers are independent contractors. Isn’t this some sort of an unfair compensation for all the Uber drivers who are not Muslim and traveling?
Seems like grounds for a class action lawsuit.
Trump is going to be proven right on this in the not to distant future. These companies and celebrities can take up the cause for these terror prone areas all they want, but many people are going to die in the coming years and this will not be forgotten.
too
Uber will always be linked to Jihadi in my mind from now on. I never would have thought they had so many illegal immigrants flying back and forth from ISIS areas.
Seriously, how many is that? Four, five people?
Uber drivers are worse than wage slaves. Bad employers who say they’re not employers. Typical liberal Orwellianism.
Uber and Starbucks are absolute idiots for stepping in it. That said, Uber isn’t a public company and has more latitude with the owners. Starbucks??????......the stupidity is beyond belief. Stay away from politics when selling coffee.
BTW-I love Uber
Eastbound tickets I hope.
If they cant get a visa whats the use of a plane ticket ???
Awesome! I — a regular Uber customer — WILL NEVER USE THEM AGAIN.
Three questions come to mind—
1. Didn’t these drivers who go on vacation to a terrorist country already have round trip tickets?
2. Does Uber pay so well that so many drivers are there at any given time?
3. Why would a refugee even want to vacation there?
They will not be let on a plane without a drivers license
They will not be let on a plane without a drivers license
Never used it. Never will. I’d rather walk.
I deleted the app.
Can you request an Uber Driver who is an American Citizen?
Apparently they are few and far between. I had no idea.
>>>Uber drivers are worse than wage slaves<<<
If they are worse than Wage Slaves, they must still be doing pretty well to be able to afford roundtrip Plane Tickets to Iran.
yawn.
