I'm not so sure... even at the airport, with a traditional taxi I have to worry about whether they will take my credit card (or take it but complain about it), if the taxi is clean, if the driver is some weirdo, will I get attitude about my destination, figuring out the tip etc. I recently used Uber at the San Jose airport and it was a glorious experience. The app switches to a different UI specially for the airport, I select the exit number I'm standing next to and the ride shows up in about 2 minutes, the driver already has my destination on his GPS before I get in (no more sightseeing tours), no fussing with payment at the end and I get a nice receipt emailed to me with the drivers details and the route taken. Taxis are going to have a hard time competing once more airports allow Uber properly. And they've got no one to blame but themselves.
