Depending upon where you are traveling to/from, Uber can sometimes be more than 100% cheaper than traditional taxis or car service. I know this is the case in my hometown of Philadelphia.
The issue with Uber is that there are different laws governing their operational ability in every single market they operate in, which affects the type of services provided. Some cities like Tallahassee only offer UberX and UberXL services at the airport while others like San Diego International offer services ranging from UberX to UberESPANOL.
This is important because if your city only offers UberBLACK then it might be cheaper to just grab a taxi, whereas UberX will most likely be the cheaper option.
I thought it would be help to compile a list of the current airports Uber operates at and what services they offer at each.

Does this mean the listed Uber services are available for both pickup and dropoff at these airports?
These are for pickups, but typically you can always take Uber to the airport as a dropoff.
