So I personally love the long and pricey lyft for those delta sky miles, BUT if it’s about saving your time on your way home etc I would suggest the subway depending on your clients location. It’d probably save you about 30 min

Take the LIRR from Penn Station, its literally one stop to the AirTrain. The trains leave every like 7 minutes.

thanks, i’ll look into this. uber to penn station isn’t far and train sounds much better.

Customer’s insistence on cheapest flight (LGA is $100 more expensive typically) is really pissing me off, especially when the Uber is routinely $100 ($50 more than Uber to LGA).

Why don’t you present the business case with evidence that the Uber is equal to or more? Do they review your expenses against the available flights? I’d say you have a business case here that with a few snapshot should get approved by your partner/manager.

ah, i can’t bill for travel time. that would be awesome, since i’m hourly.
