Enjoy the Iconic Shuttle Service between Eastgate and Sandton City
Zeelo, the personalised shared transport service, is giving people travelling from the East into Sandton each day, a luxury commuting service in the form of the Iconic Shuttle.
Shoppers and commuters alike are able to book their seats based on a flexible schedule, with a return journey for R75 which includes free parking. Several bulk ride packages are also available at discounted rates.
The luxury coaches are equipped with complimentary Wi-Fi, meaning passengers can catch up on emails, watch their favourite series on Netflix, or even nap on the commute. The coaches are also air conditioned and have spacious, reclining seats for their luxury.
“We at Zeelo are passionate about giving people their time back. The average commuter that drives to work in their car wastes up to 13 weeks a year behind the steering wheel; we want to make traveling with Zeelo a viable alternative to the car,” said James Champion, general manager of Zeelo SA.
Zeelo call themselves the ‘getting people out of cars people’, and this is exactly what they hope to do by launching this service. For every Zeelo journey from Eastgate Shopping Centre to Sandton City, an average of 30 vehicles are taken off the road, contributing to a reduction in traffic congestion as well as carbon emissions.
“At Eastgate Shopping Centre, we pride ourselves in offering convenience to our customers and with Zeelo, this is even more achievable. Nobody enjoys sitting in traffic, so being able to catch up on series, emails, or some beauty sleep while someone else sits in the traffic is a definite win and we are thrilled to be offering our shoppers, and all members of Joburg East, a luxury service of this nature,” said Kelly Belman, general manager at Eastgate Shopping Centre.
Passengers wishing to use the service are able to book and pay for their rides online through Zeelo’s state-of-the-art website; have access to 24/7 live customer support through the online live chat functionality; and will be able to track their bus in real time.
Zeelo would like to invite Bedfordview and Edenvale News readers to try out the service for free. You can enjoy a complimentary 10 Ride Pass, when booking with the promo code BAENEWS10.
