Uber Black arrives in Timișoara
<p>Popular ridesharing company Uber introduced its premium service, Uber Black, in Timișoara, western Romania. The option <a href="https://www.romania-insider.com/uber-black-launches-bucharest" rel="noopener" target="_blank">is also available in Bucharest</a>.</p>

<p>Uber Black drivers must maintain a minimum rating of 4.85 stars, hold commercial insurance, and comply with all county or local regulations, ensuring a premium and reliable service on every trip, the company said.</p>

<p>With Ride Preferences available in the Uber app, riders can customize their experience: adjusting temperature, requesting luggage assistance, or even setting their preferred level of conversation with the driver.</p>

<p>In addition, Uber Black gives passengers more flexibility, allowing users up to 5 minutes to reach their car before a waiting fee applies, compared to the 2-minute window on services like UberX.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Uber operates in over 10,000 cities in more than 70 countries around the world. In Romania, where it has been licensed as a passenger transportation intermediary since 2020, Uber is available in 24 cities.</p>
