Uber or taxi for early morning flight? I’ve got a flight coming up that leaves at 5:45 am and I live about 10-15 minutes from the airport. Does anyone have any recommendations on a reliable taxi service that I can make a reservation at, or has anyone used uber at like 4:30 am?

Amigo Taxi, 919-888-8888 or Taxi Taxi, 919-333-3333. No need to show up before 3:30 as none of the ticketing counters are even open until then. None of the food past security opens until 5:30, so make sure you eat breakfast someplace else. RDU Taxi is also a good choice at 919-840-7277. Most interesting taxi is Trivia Taxi at 919-771-3377, if you like trivia questions at that time of day.

I can personally understand some of the frustrations cab drivers face because of the unregulated ride sharing apps. Unfortunately, a lot of my fellow colleagues do not understand that you have to be proactive in how you approach trying to prove your po int. Change comes through policies and politics. Be a better driver. Be courteous to your customers. Stop ripping people off to make an extra couple bucks. Understand its a business based on customer service and not just driving. As a professional taxi driver, I am not interested in protesting or going on strike against Uber. My job as a professional is to provide an amazing ride experience while getting my customers to their destination safely. Drivers need to stop blaming everyone else and realize the problem is as close as their own ethics and operations. https://www.facebook.com/jeffmots Independent Contractor Taxi Taxi 100 https://Facebook.com/taxitaxi100 ofraleigh
