Waymo Expands Autonomous Ride-Hailing Services to Las Vegas Airport
Waymo has officially launched autonomous ride-hailing services at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. The service utilizes dedicated autonomous vehicle zones at Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 for pickups and drop-offs. This expansion marks the sixth major airport served by Waymo, following successful deployments in Phoenix, Nashville, San Antonio, San Francisco, and San José. The rollout in Las Vegas will initially be limited to a small number of riders before expanding to the general public. The move intensifies competition in the local autonomous vehicle market, where Amazon-owned Zoox is already operational. Additionally, recent regulatory approvals are expected to bring significant robotaxi presence from Tesla and Uber to the city over the coming year.
