Claim:
1. A computationally-implemented method, comprising: receiving a request for transporting one or more end users to a destination location from a starting location; presenting one or more portions of a travel plan for facilitating the one or more end users to travel to the destination location from the starting location, the travel plan identifying at least two route legs including at least one transport route leg that calls for at least one transportation vehicle unit to transport the one or more end users over the transport route leg; determining that at least one of the one or more end users is in proximity of a rendezvous location; and transmitting a request for one or more transportation vehicle units to rendezvous with the one or more end users at the rendezvous location in order to transport the one or more end users over the at least one transport route leg responsive to the detecting that the at least one of the one or more end users is in proximity of the rendezvous location, wherein at least one of the receiving, presenting, determining, or transmitting is at least partially implemented using at least one processing device.
