Anyone use Uber to get to DFW? I just submitted a request for car service from Plano to DFW and the quote was $80. I just submitted a quote through Uber and it was only $50. It will be at 6am on Saturday morning so traffic won't be a factor.

Yes. Your quote they provide is fairly accurate.

Might want to have a back up plan in case there aren't uber drivers near Plano at 6 am on a Saturday morning. Had a problem in Houston burbs getting an early ride a couple weeks back.

I use it every time I go to the airport now. Better than parking. Also never had an issue getting a driver that early. I got picked up in 7 mins at 4:45am last week.

Have you used Uber before?

I live in central Plano and there's always numerous Uber drivers within a mile of my house during normal hours. I was just concerned about it being at 6am. I think I'll give it a shot. If there are none around, I can always jump in my truck and pay to park.

Check out some of the hotels around DFW. Some will let you park for a few bucks a day (my parents spent 6-7/day) at the airport Marriott. Shuttle every 30 minutes though but saves you the 50 ride home later. Just depends on how early you want to manage and if you're expensing it.

Are you wanting black car or UberX? I personally don't care too much what I get driven in, so generally prefer UberX. I fly weekly and drive and park sometimes and UberX others. They just raised the already high price of parking at the terminal from 20/day to 22/day last week and the fact that my outbound and inbound flights are at the same terminal may push me to use uber more.

Note that you can't get UberX pickup at the airport back to the house (only black car is available) so what costs like 36 getting there can be 100+ getting home for me.

Looks like they have a flat rate to Plano of $95 from DFW airport. You'll want to confirm that with the driver is aware of this, otherwise they may charge you more.

It can be a bit tricky to find where uber picks up at the terminal also, it seems to kinda vary by terminal.

Ever use Uber before? If not, I get emails all the time with a referral code that can get you $30 off your first ride (I'm sure everyone else gets these too).

Try LYFT as well. They can pick you up from airport too.

Use Code DANNY684 for free ride.

Used it for the first time the other day and when I mentioned it was my first trip he gave me a card with the code. Go enter the code that same day and get $30 off.

I have a very good driver who is more reasonable than Uber and very professional. He works with a few other drivers, but is independent. Very easy to get a ride. I shot PlanoAg his info, but if anyone else is looking shoot me a PM or email.
