West coast fb: I've got a client mtg that ends at 7pm in San Jose, then shoot up to SFO for a 920pm flight 2 Denver. Is Uber reliable means to get from San Jose to SFO at that time of day?

Traffic is still a nightmare, but if you take 280 you should be fine

I don't even understand why this is an issue - the 101 can be crazy jammed, and 280 wide open. They're not even that far apart. In the 20+ years I've been traveling to the bay area, 280 is almost always a better option to get to SFO or San Francisco proper from Silicon Valley.

Take 380 and you should be solid

Select or Black, not X. I would schedule it ahead of time though, vice waiting to request one. Traffic in that direction usually thins out by 7-7:30. You'll still be cutting it close, but it's doable.

like

Schedule Uber and always take 280, should take you about 35-45 min at that time of day but that'll give you plenty of time.

Have done similar many times for flights leaving SFO mid-evening. You'll be fine, follow the advice upthread.

280 to 380

Easily. It takes around 50 mins from SJ to SFO after 7 pm (unless there is an accident then add 30min). I have done that commute for 14+ months
