Of course we all know about Thanksgiving, but there's another big day this week (tonight, in fact): Drinksgiving. The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is considered a popular night for hitting the bars, and now we have the data to prove it. Can you guess which city has the biggest jump in rides to the bar tonight? 🍻 Find out:  https://lnkd.in/dSfnveBz

You all know I enjoy driving on Lyft. I'm not alone: 36% of U.S. adults have worked and earned on an app-based platform, using it as a way to pay their bills as they balance other obligations or pursue their longer-term dreams. Gig work is here to stay. When something's working well at scale, your best move is to make it even better. Here are a few ideas on improving app-based while work maintaining the flexibility that has made it so popular. Thanks to The Aspen Institute for helping me think this through! https://lnkd.in/g_7T4a9T

A few weeks into our DoorDash partnership and we're already seeing great customer feedback. Turns out 70% of people who go out regularly say eating afterward is one of the best parts of the night. Plenty of riders place orders from the backseat of a Lyft so food is waiting for them when they get home. Love it. Business relationships, like all relationships, aren't easy. Our goal was to create a long-term partnership based on the idea that if both DoorDash's and Lyft's customers get great value, everyone wins. Please give it a try and let me know what you think. And Thanksgiving's the perfect time-- among other benefits you'll get half off a scheduled Lyft to the airport, up to $25. I truly hope that helps you connect with the people who matter most to you.

We took a look at ride data to find the best and worst days to travel for Thanksgiving (let's just say if you're flying on Wednesday... brace yourself). The good news: you can link your DoorDash and Lyft accounts to save 50% on your scheduled airport ride this week: https://lnkd.in/etbCuu_m Get all the exclusive insights and more in this week's Rev newsletter:

At Lyft, we believe in the power of community and the importance of honoring diverse backgrounds. Last month, we celebrated #LatinxHeritageMonth and spotlighted two members of our Uplyft Unidos ERG (Jill Gonzalez and Joovay A.), who shared how they are shaping the future of Lyft and beyond. #LifeatLyft https://lnkd.in/gtGEqEAd

Transportation access can have a major impact on voting behavior. Nearly half of eligible voters didn’t cast a ballot in 2020, and more than 780,000 directly cited “transportation problems” as their primary obstacle in 2022. Here’s how rideshare can help more Americans exercise their right to vote: https://lnkd.in/eHaXRxJb
