Just some observations to pass on from what I saw in the early evening yesterday and daytime today -

Mandalay Bay has a designated Uber/Lyft pickup at their main entrance. Follow signs to Registration and stay left of the large columns (might be shuttle buses in that area to help you find it).

At other hotels, follow signs to either "thru traffic" or "hotel registration" to get closer to the doors. Don't follow the cabs. Valet & security have been pretty nice in places I've pulled in. But locations may change (like designated areas) as things get moving.

I see a lot of drivers wasting gas driving around waiting for a ping. Check out Industrial, Dean Martin or Koval in between pings. There's places you can park without getting crap or mingling with cabbies. Downtown there are a couple of side streets that have 1 or 4 hour no meter parking.

If you have anything to add or correct, let's work together via this thread so hotels will stay happy and we don't become a hassle.

Thanks.

Just on the news - the County District Attorney has sent a letter to the TNCs to STOP DROPS at the airport. Fox5 says some drivers have been sited as permitting is supposed to secured first. I'm sure we'll get an email...but use your own judgment. This just happened before 5pm today.

Lyft just sent this email-
Lyft alert: McCarran Airport is off-limits to Lyft drivers. Avoid a ticket: Call passengers, ask their destination, and suggest alternates if it's the airport.

So avoid McCarran at all costs.

Thanks for the info. Is Mandalay bay pickup at beach level ? That is the Shuttle bus pickup Area. Shuttle Bus area is the safest place to pick and drop on the strap.

I followed the signs to "hotel registration". Once underground, bear to the left of the big columns (It's like 2 lanes compared to the main lanes which is like 4-5 lanes wide).

I got the message from Lyft as well. I suspect our incompetent District Attorney will be getting quite a scolding from the legislators and convention industry on this. Most likely a judge or two as well. We shall see how this plays out.

Aria has designated pickups/drops.

Mandalay Beach Club by convention hall has designated pickup signs

If you're north end of Strip (by SLS) good off street parking on Convention Center Drive Ross Dress for Less parking lot.

Take airports rides to short term parking (and drop there) if they don't mind...still saving a ton and out of line of fire.

Has Uber issued a notice as well? I have not heard anything about McCarron being off limits for drop offs.

I think they are all getting their cars out of impound at the moment (;

Emailed saying you're at risk of a ticket. I did one drop and refused one. Told the Dr. I was doing him a favor (nicely)...cheap sob no tip.

Just FYI... The designated pickup/dropoff at Aria is located at North Valet area which u get to via Harmon ave. You take a ramp to the right about 1 block west of strip on Harmon. The staff there very friendly.

 

[tonyjzrose]

I wish the app would tell the hotel name instead of the address when picking up.

 

[tonyjzrose]

Did anyone drop at any strap clubs?
Any kickbacks $$$

We should organize a protest in front of the county office this gready bastards are worse then so called 3rd world countrys that have corupt governments so we can draw more attention and more media because what theyvare doing is criminal.
Stand up for uor rights anybody can drop off at the airport why not us
We're talking about drop off not pick up i hope uber will sue and organize a protest i know we have the support of the residents of clark county

Monte Carlo pickup is a pain in the butt. Not a lot of room and not an easy way to get back out onto LV Blvd.

Because of lack of room, security told me "no staging". Might be a good idea, if you get a pax request, to call them right away to get them headed to the pickup at the hotel registration entrance.
