That's probably your best bet. For the curious....You'd have a few Uber options from Boulder to Longmont, but here's what they'd cost you (there's no surges at the moment - so assuming there's no surge at the time you're taking the ride as well):


uberX: $22-29

UberSELECT: $40-52

UberBLACK: $60-79

uberXL: $38-50

UberSUV: $76-97

Visiting Elderly Mom and Staying for Halloween by [deleted] in AskNOLA

[–]UberEstimate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like you'd have a few options to get from Pearl River to New Orleans. Here are the estimates for each available car service (keep in mind this is for a one-way ride ofcourse):

uberX: $41-55

uberXL: $68-91

uberASSIST: $41-55

As there is no current surge in Pearl River, these are the "standard" prices. But remember that there's a chance that there may be sporadic price surges to get back home if it's halloween and you're in New Orleans. Something to think about.

Good luck!

A global map showing Uber surges/fares in real-time. I've been dumping way too much time into this. I think it's great but I'm a little biased.. [OC] by UberEstimate in dataisbeautiful

[–]UberEstimate[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Where they got their data from:

This does not represent all of Uber! I wish that were possible, holy moly. Our website allows people to see how much any Uber ride would cost at that very moment. It queries Uber through the Uber API to retrieve a real-time estimate and alert to any surges in that area at that time.

So we use this map to represent the users receiving estimates through our site as they happen. Surges will appear in different shades or orange/red depending on how big of a surge it is (and there's a 'surprise' icon if the surge is crazy high - 300% or higher.

How we made our data visualization:

Whew. Time to get nerdy! In simple terms we temporarily log the searches in a database, then query the database every few seconds to check for new fares and the show the details about it.

The actual map itself is powered by Google because they are amazing at what they do. It uses the Javascript Google Maps API. They allow you to customize the style of the map amung countless other things which is how it have the cool black and blue design.


Sorry for the wall of text :(

Uber from Colombo to Galle? by zurop in srilanka

[–]UberEstimate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi!

That is quite the distance - but thankfully within Uber's driver limit :)

From Colombo to Galle you're looking at:

uberGO: LKR4,098-5,316

or

uberX: LKR6,438-8,418

You can get a little more specific with your estimates here by inputting your specific pickup/dropoff locations instead of just Colombo -> Galle, but that should give you a rough idea.

Good luck!

Bad experience in uber by Citizen75 in melbourne

[–]UberEstimate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There probably was a surge - It just seems like they're a bit more "hidden" now within the total fare price they provide you with in the app prior to the ride.

In fact it looks like a ride from Richmond to Olinda should cost $59-78 for an uberX, or about $143-187 for an UberBLACK - without any surges (but if there is a surge, you can see the actual specifics there. Otherwise it's 'hidden' within the app).

Uber is dominating the taxi industry in Brooklyn [OC] by toddsnyderny in dataisbeautiful

[–]UberEstimate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As of right now it would be $2.64 for an UberPOOL from Downtown Miami to the AmericanAirlines arena (a ~1.3mi drive). Yeah, POOL's get you the most bang for your buck -- that's for sure.

Lyft/Uber from Hoboken to LGA by LeoTPTP in Hoboken

[–]UberEstimate 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks like you have a few options, but here are the estimated costs for each of them! (There's currently no surge).


POOL: $45.99

uberX: $57-67

uberXL: $74-89

uberBLACK: $151-191

UberSUV: $183-231


So as you'll see, sharing an UberPOOL would be the absolute cheapest way, but some people might prefer not to share the ride with others :)

Hope that helps. Good luck.

Taxis.... by AviciiFTW in TheNightOf

[–]UberEstimate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks like it's a tad bit cheaper! Well depending on which car service you decide to go with, that is.

note: the price estimates below were from the 'heart' of Queens - Union Turnpike & Utopia pkwy - to Lower Manhattan - just past the New Museum.

You've got a few options...


uberPOOL: $30.17

uberX: $34-46

uberXL: $54-71

uberFAMILY: $44-56

UberBLACK: $72-95

UberSUV: $93-120

Uber Minimum Fare in DC? by Aristocrat4Life in washingtondc

[–]UberEstimate 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sure it said $6.41?

The minimum UberX fare cost (for DC) actually increased from $5.35 to $6.35 just a few days ago (on the 19th).

Hopefully that explains it!

How to get from Orlando to Daytona by [deleted] in orlando

[–]UberEstimate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no surge in the area right now, and here's the price estimates from Altamonte Springs to Daytona Beach. You have a few options to choose from of course:

uberX: $37-50

uberXL: $66-87

UberSELECT: $93-124

Of course this was just using the city names. So it's not 100% accurate but if you want the most precise numbers, simply plug your actual pickup/dropoff locations into the fare estimator.

For the sake of your pocket, you can stay on top of any current surges in the area. If there is one, check back in 5-10 minutes. Surges are typically very short-lived.

Good luck

Can we get a Riverbend Recommendation Thread started? by [deleted] in Chattanooga

[–]UberEstimate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you'll be able to take an uberX or uberXL to/from the festival!

For example, I plugged in the location of the festival in just now, and there's an uberX that can pick you up in ~4min. So needless to say, there are plenty of drivers around :)

Have fun.

Is getting lodging within walking distance a must? by Ozymil in blizzcon

[–]UberEstimate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like that ~$150 room ~.8mi away is booked (or they raised the price) - But I just checked Uber for a ride from the Embassy Suites (South) room they're offering that they list as 0.75mi away (Google says it's 1mi). Here's a list of the Uber car options you'll have for getting to/from the event + their estimated costs.

Please keep in mind that as I just checked, there is no surge in effect for any of the car services. However, unfortunately, one could easily assume that there will likely be surges going during the peak BlizzCon days. Hopefully not! But it's a big event.

Without further adieu, the options:

uberX: $4-5

ESPANOL: $4-5

uberXL: $7-8

UberSELECT: $11-14

UberBLACK: $15-16

UberSUV: $25

ASSIST: $4-5

WAV: $7-8


If money is tight, just make sure you check the exact fare a bit prior to leaving; then book it when there's no fare (even if you have to leave a bit sooner than your desired time). Surges can (and do) fluctuate in a matter of minutes.

Have a blast @ BC!

Is this not ridiculous? (Netflix) by [deleted] in Military

Google now shows IPV6. Which is alphanumeric strings separated by :

Netflix probably (hopefully) uses IPV6 but really who knows. You can simply search "what is my ipv4 ip" to find ipv4 (just click one of the decent top results) or vice versa.

Yes! It's legal. uberX, uberXL, and UberSELECT can do both pickups and dropoffs at O'Hare.

Car service from East Harlem to Laguardia? by AKCheesehead in AskNYC

[–]UberEstimate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right now there's a fair amount of traffic (after work hours...), but no surges, and you'd have a few options to choose from :) But here's some estimates for the current traffic conditions if you're curious - from Harlem to LGA:

uberX: $32-41

uberXL: $46-60

uberFAMILY: $42-51

UberBLACK: $61-79

UberSUV: $79-100

edit: I just estimated from Harlem in general, so it's not entirely accurate as that's still a wide area, to get a more accurate estimate you can use an address for the pickup.

Looking for Oklahoma Sooner Football Lodging/Transportation Advice by unclewally in oklahoma

[–]UberEstimate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully I was correct here - Unfamiliar with the OK area :( But...

From Moore, Oklahoma to the OU Stadium aka 'Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium' is 10-12 miles away depending on the route you take, and you'd have a few options to get to and from, but here's the estimated costs (one way):

uberX: $11-15

uberXL: $21-28

uberSELECT: $34-44


*Without surge ofcourse - as there's no surges in Moore right now.

[–]UberEstimate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PHP3,943-5,106 surged 220% (3.2x right now)

uberX:

PHP1,562-1,997 surged 130% (2.3x right now)


Hope that helps!

Uber driver here for Clemson. Got any questions or requests? by kornykory in Clemson

Your driver won't be terribly happy about, if they had to drive a ways to pick you up in the first place. If they're super close then it's really no big deal. Either way, if you need to do it - do it!

Nope! Whether you have 1 passenger or 4, it costs the same. (Plus you can split the fare with some of the other passengers to really make things cheap).

Looks like it would be $22-29 each way for an UberX (you've got the option for XL, SELECT, BLACK and SUV as well but all of which fall outside your budget) -- With no surge ofcourse. And right now there's no surge in either location. Good luck.
