Uber on Big Island

There are many such options on Amazon. I suspect the security would notice someone looping the airport repeatedly, especially advertising with a Uber sign of some sort.

I had always imagined that many travelers arrived at the airport and were surprised there was no Uber when they checked.

I almost have to wonder if Uber is somehow blocking requests from the airport as part of the rollout. Seems unlikely and unreasonable and probably a stupid conspiracy theory, but the explanation that among many hundreds of arrivals, no one is checking Uber seems even more unlikely.

I wish I had a way to ask the other Uber drivers if anyone has got an airport request. Maybe my experience was some sort of statistical outlier...

Dunno.
