Abstract:
A method and a system for allocating seats in a vehicle for a share-ride in a ride-sharing system are provided. The vehicle is detected in a geographical area and includes one or more seats that are available for the share-ride. A share-ride fare for each available seat is determined based on a defined fare range associated with each available seat. The one or more seats of the vehicle are allocated to one or more passengers based on preferences of the one or more passengers for one or more seat types. The preferences of each passenger are determined based on at least historical travel data or a real-time booking request.
