The site said rides between lower HPP and Hilo airport were not available.
Uber is all new to me. Are you available between lower HPP and Hilo Airport?
THANKS!

Uber works by matching drivers online with riders online requesting rides. So pre-arranging isn't really an option through the system. Seems that will be a problem for airport runs (or any kind of runs) from Puna. Maybe someone will go after that market with a post on craigslist or something to pre-arrange. They could simply be a private driver, or use Uber as the interface. To use Uber the driver and rider would both be online at the pre-arranged pickup site, and then the rider requests a ride, the driver gets the request and the passage happens. In theory.

Of course, then Uber takes its 20% cut...

Cheers,
Kirt
