How reliable is Uber to BWI from Columbia, MD?

Early AM on a weekday?

No snark, but why would it not be reliable? Have you had bad experiences with Uber?

Very reliable. I have taken many Uber and Lyft rides from Columbia to BWI at all times of the day and I have never had a problem with someone showing up.

It's a remarkably short trip from Columbia to BWI and there are plenty of Uber drivers willing to make the drive.

Because for early mornings, I like to book ahead and have had drivers cancel last minute. This is for my elderly parents so want to make sure things go smoothly for them.

Honestly, I have never bothered to book ahead, which costs more. I just request the ride 20-30 minutes ahead of time and there is always someone who is ready to come.

Can’t speak for Uber, but I’ve used Lyft many times and it was easy I assume Uber the same (many drivers seem to have both signage for both uber and Lyft).

I build in extra time just in case a driver cancels or gets delayed.
Good luck!

I would think in and around Columbia, it’s pretty easy to get an Uber/Lyft at any hour. I never reserve them ahead of time, but as someone else mentioned, build in some pad time…maybe 20-30 minutes just to be safe.
