Uber will actively monitor all active cars at the time requested to find a ride for you but cannot guarantee a ride. In big cities and busy areas, there will likely be cars available throughout the day and night, but in the exceptional case that no drivers are available, you will be notified immediately.
Are Uber ride times accurate?
Please note that ETA times are estimates and not guaranteed. A variety of external factors like heavy traffic or road construction can impact travel time. If the ETA you see in app is too high, return back after a few minutes to see if there is a change.
How reliable is scheduled Uber?
Is it better to Uber in the morning or at night?
Uber's peak hours are typically Friday and Saturday nights. Yes, peak hours also occur on weekday mornings and during the evening rush hour, but those hard and fast rules are changing as more people flex their schedules and work from home. From your afternoon rush around 3:00 pm, it's going to pick up.
Why are Ubers cheaper in the morning?
Uber surge pricing is not based on time of day. It's calculated using a strange blend of math, metaphysics, and alchemy. But seriously, it's based on supply and demand. If there are more people looking to request a ride versus the number of drivers available, the prices go up.
What’s the cheapest time to get an Uber?
If you want the fare to be cheapest, best way to travel would be during the non peak hours. Peak hours include morning and evening office times and during rains. Hope this helps.
