Um, LOL, no, but that was pretty funny. The PA specifically SET UP AN AREA IN THE PARKING GARAGE for Uber/Lyft drivers for the convenience of passengers.
Take a public bus with luggage, no thanks! I took that bus once although cheap it is a long ride.
I would rather take a supershuttle bus to the airport than take a public bus.
Some airports already started surcharging Uber/Lyft because it has crashed their parking and busing business. Including dedicated car services.
So enjoy while you can because eventually there will be $3-4 surcharge for every ride to airports.
I take Uber because I like to know the price beforehand, uberpool, better cars and I don't like to carry cash.
One can pay for a Yellow cab either with a credit card or using an app (meaning one doesn't have to carry cash!).
I think bus option is good for someone with just a small carry-on and especially if they live in Queens as some locations can be just a bus ride away from LGA.
I doubt anyone's going to get upset over $3 - $4.
I doubt anyone's going to get upset over $3 - $4, if that is actually the case.
Most taxi drivers prefer cash and actually had a attitude when I took out the credit card..
It's $4 surcharge at LAX.
You can complain to the Taxi & Limousine Commission if a problem like that arises.
As another alternative there is an app one can use to pay for NYC Yellow Cabs directly.
