Uber Reserve at Airports
We launched Uber Reserve last year to let you book your trip in advance. Today, we're bringing that experience to airport travel, providing extra peace of mind so you can step off the plane and know your ride is waiting for you.
Uber will actively monitor all active cars at the time requested to find a ride for you but cannot guarantee a ride. In big cities and busy areas, there will likely be cars available throughout the day and night, but in the exceptional case that no drivers are available, you will be notified immediately.

How much should you tip Uber drivers? Similar to tipping for other services, like getting a massage or going to the nail salon, the rule of thumb is to tip 20%, says Sokolosky. So if your ride costs $30—an average cost for a moderate trip in most cities—then you'll tip $6, for a total of $36.

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.
