Uber, Lyft agree to pay combined $328 million for withholding money from drivers
Uber and Lyft also agreed to an "earnings floor," the N.Y. attorney general said.
Someone mentioned a Netflix special on Uber a few weeks ago but I’ve yet to check it out.just watched the show on netflix for how UBER started.
pretty good
drivers used to get paid a lot, then slowly as competition grew their pay went down
That was a good show. I did a 2-day binge on that one.just watched the show on netflix for how UBER started.

When?LYFT is closing
Generally speaking with the exception of the premium Uber/Lyft UberX is always going to be cheaper than a cab. Even with a fixed rate from the airport Uber is still cheaper but sometimes it is more inconvenient on the customer side especially here in Vegas. For example if you go out the front door of the hotel cabs are sitting there waiting for you whereas if you want to grab an Uber you have to go to a special area. Each hotel is different where they have that area and it’s not as convenient as grabbing a cab. So in some instances even though Uber may be a little bit cheaper than a cab it’s sometimes easier just to grab a cab@BobbyFK how does uber/lyft rates compare to Vegas cab rates?
It’s 8am……put that BEER down!LYFT is closing

I remember back in the day before the cab fixed rates from the Airport Habib would always drive you way out of the way to get to your hotel in VegasGenerally speaking with the exception of the premium Uber/Lyft UberX is always going to be cheaper than a cab.

Cabs still try to take the long way every chance they getI remember back in the day before the cab fixed rates from the Airport Habib would always drive you way out of the way to get to your hotel in Vegas
First time I went to LV was 1988, we took a cheap Limo to the hotel. 4 of us split it can't imagine a taxi being much cheaper. I don't remember the exact price but it was cheap.I remember back in the day before the cab fixed rates from the Airport Habib would always drive you way out of the way to get to your hotel in Vegas
Many years ago, we were staying at MGM and the cab driver took us from the airport past Boulder Station on the way to the hotel. Said it was the quickest route to avoid traffic.I remember back in the day before the cab fixed rates from the Airport Habib would always drive you way out of the way to get to your hotel in Vegas
YES,Did they change the name of the LV Airport?
