Observations by Airport Operations

First big conference –Adobe Systems (March 9) with +7000 customers. One afternoon rush resulted in a shortage of providers (typical for a large convention).

Drivers like the starter system; no queue jumping.Seeing newer vehicles like Tahoes and Suburbans in

the queueA few Uber providers have registered.Customer can request a different provider Drivers realize that it’s “three and out” and return

to the end of the queue.Have not seen “surge” pricing abused at the Airport
