I always wondered about the elasticity of Uber prices. When I’m traveling for business, I don’t care it’s someone else’s money. When I’m on vacation, I expect to spend money. When I’m going out for drinks or just didn’t want to deal with downtown Atlanta traffic and parking when living in the burbs, I also didn’t care.

Are price conscious people using Uber?

In Prague, price conscious people are using public transport. Then I think most people have multiple apps Uber/Bolt/Liftago and before making a trip they check each for the best deal.
