How much will I be charged? There is no difference in the pricing between normal Uber rides and scheduled rides – that means no extra cost for booking your Uber in advance! However, pricing is based on demand at the time of your order, so if you reserve at peak-hour traffic your ride might be a little more expensive.

So when should you request a ride? “In my experience, 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. are the worst in terms of pricing because there is high demand for Uber,” Adkins says. “If you can wait just 10 minutes, regular pricing may come into effect again.” Another common peak time is when bars close for the night.
Uber runs 24 hours a day; 7 days a week. As far as how early Uber picks up, it's a matter of how many drivers are avaibale at that time. There will be many more available drivers in the afternoon than in the wee hours of the morning.
Uber is open all the time. If you are in an area where Uber is supported, you can usually bet there is one at all times of the day. I live in the suburbs, and at night, I see less cars, but there are always a few at all hours. For all I know, it could be some dude sleeping at his house who has the driver app on.
Depending on the day of the week, more than likely, yes; however, as drivers set their own schedule, there is no guarantee. I just about ONLY drive in the wee hours, and until the bar drivers go home (around 3 AM), it is easy to get an uber driver. After that time it is touch and go.
Tipping is optional. You are free to add a tip, and drivers are free to accept tips. How do I leave my driver a tip? The easiest way to tip your driver is through the app.
