Brightline is launching Brightline+ as it ends a hiatus of its services. The ridehailing service helps Brightline brand itself as a door-to-door mobility provider. Customers can also use Brightline+ to pay for parking at any of the train stations, and will soon be able to book and pay for micromobility services as well. In Florida, Brightline plans to expand its services to the Orlando International Airport by the end of 2022.
