The City of Dallas recently established rules to allow ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft to pick up and drop off passengers at the Dallas Love Field airport. Through its Lyft for Work program, employees are allotted monthly credits for commutes, corporate travel, and event and conference transportation. And in June, Lyft partnered with Southwest Airlines to make getting to and from the airport even easier by offering discounts (up to $10 off) in flight confirmation emails; more offers are expected to roll out in the coming months.
