Like LA, in FTL Uber is not allowed to do airport pickups either, but RussJ is correct, I have friends who call them all the time, and Uber will pick them up curbside, usually within minutes of the call... Low key, no Uber sticker etc.
I have been dead against Uber from the start, and have never used them, but they are cooperating with county officials now, and are operating again, and I have to say, they are less than half the cost of a taxi.
AND... yes, I'm curious also, did you tip via the app, or did you tip the driver directly?
