Abstract
Particular embodiments described herein provide for a communication system that can be configured to receive a desired arrival time for a package to arrive at a destination, determine a location of the package, determine a route to the destination, and determine a pickup time to pick up the package. The pickup time can be at least partially based on the desired arrival time and a time to travel along the route. In an example, the package is a passenger and the communication system can involve a transportation or delivery service.
