Ara announced on Christmas Eve that it had made its billionth trip in a new milestone for the global ride-sharing service. The blog post states: " Marvin and Ara just made our day . Their £5 London uberX ride together on five and a half years ago from London Fields , Hackney to Hoxton in Ara 's blue Honda Insight Hybrid was the billionth Uber trip… One billion . That's a whole lot of riders and drivers sharing the road... ’s Certainly far more than we ever imagined when we got started in San Francisco our day … For riding their way into our history books, we're putting one year's worth of free rides in rider Hackney 's stocking and our driver-partner Ara will be taking a vacation on us to the Uber city of his choice."
