The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for managing a fleet of ridesharing vehicles. In one implementation, the system may include a communications interface configured to receive ride requests and location information and at least one processor configured to assign a first ridesharing vehicle to pick-up a first group of users; determine pick-up locations for the first group; send data to guide each user to a respective pick-up location; predict when a first user will arrive at a first pick-up location; prior to the first user arriving, cancel the assignment of the first ridesharing vehicle to the first user while maintaining the assignment to others of the first group; predict when a second ridesharing vehicle may pass the first pick-up location; and re-assign the first user to the second ridesharing vehicle when the predicted passing time is after the predicted arrival time.
