If you have a flight leaving at 5 AM Monday and getting back at 11 PM that Thursday, would you rather Uber to the airport and back or drive?

Well I live in NY and don’t have a car. So it’s a toss up for me

The better question is why are you flying Monday morning instead of Sunday night?

Probably because client wants them there on Monday morning. Its more common than you may think.

If it’s for work travel - Uber since it’ll get covered anyways
If it’s personal travel - I’d still uber tbh - if you tried to drive you’re still paying to park your car at the airport, plus you’d be dead tired after flying back at a late hour. Why risk it just to save a little bit of $?

I use Uber Black or a car service. Ive had too many bad experiences with UberC and Uber Comfort.

Yes, because I don't like driving at night and it gets expensed anyway. Catch every last rest moment that I can.

I always uber to and from the airport. It’s a pain to park and I’m always exhausted when I get home.

Uber. I don’t want to drive at 3am or midnight. I want to be chauffeured door to door. Parking would be more expensive at my airport anyway.

Company is paying for it. I reserve a taxi for the rides. There should be no risk to being late to the airport or bed 3 hours after your flight lands because someone didn't want to do the drive.

I’d drive because of my Type A personality and refusal to rely on others.

Depends on the city. I’d be worried about not having an uber available that early in the morning.

Makes sense

Uber it, book it evening before to make sure you don’t risk not finding one

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).
