I searched but didn’t find much. Can someone remind me if Memorial Day is worth it? Specifically looking at airport trips in the AM or early afternoon?

 

[Jo3030]

Nope.

 

[warrior lady]

It may be okay..ish. Think late evening to late night may be decent..People flying back from long weekend. Plus Monday late nights are usually decent to sometimes good at airport...Especially if there are storms.

It's slow and there's loads of ants there. The national Mall has more activity but you already know the headache that awaits there.

Early afternoons I'd say will be ant city.

The national Mall has more activity but you already know the headache that awaits there.

Thus is precisely why I don't do D.C. daytime weekends

I plan to drink until I'm in a fetal position with an empty bottle watching Band of Brothers and XHamser

I thought you called that 'Tuesday'

 

[RiderOnTheStorm]

National Mall and D.C. in general is going to be a cluster**** this (SUNDAY) EVENING.
Not just the daytime.
Because: CONCERT ON THE MALL starts at 7 pm.

Tuesday is XLobster

Thanks for the responses folks!

Yeah downtown DC is a no unless you are in the 9th st tunnel leaving.

I’m considering heading out to Annapolis first (not to far from me) and just waiting for a long trip notification or something. Do some other work while I wait.

today will be dead as it has all weekend. tonight when everyone flies in at the same time..Reagan will be gridlocked like last year. 1 hour to pick up pax on a 2x surge going to Arlington

no thanks.

 

[Cwilly]

The rest of ants would be thinking the same. Not worth it

Since it's a holiday, I think we get either one and a half, or two times our regular hourly rate. If you're over 40 hours and work a holiday, it's easily double time on the pay scale.

 

[John Origami]

It was slow. Ended with a good airport drop off + queue skip airport pickup.

 

[POOLKiller]

I never work holidays. It’s just not worth it.

 

[yankdog]

I love working holidays. I haven't gotten out yet but I plan to work my ass off from 6pm tonight thru rush hour on Tuesday morning with 6 hr sleeps to reset on Uber . Holidays done right can be very profitable.

 

[John Origami]

Dulles queue was at 18 when I dropped off a 30 minute ago (grabbed a $40 IAD trip sitting in my house (long trip notification ))

Then again Dulles pickups are hell and the arrivals loop was jammed hence me leaving

 

[CantThrowCantCatch]

Holidays are the best day to drive for Uber!!

Less Paxs + Shitload of Drivers = More Earning For You and Your Partners.

Surge is going wild. yankdog called it perfectly

Surge is going wild. yankdog called it perfectly

DCA 2.1x, East DCA river 3.2x . UBER DC office manipulate airport center point surge move to the east direction 0.7-1 mile on the middle of the river. They are trying to lower the "REAL" surge in order to complete with LYFT and TAXI. UBER do the same at IAD set 0 surge 24/7! DC general manager play the game!
