Being able to take an impromptu trip without any coordination is worth significant quality of life. It typically takes 5-10 minutes for an Uber to arrive at my door. Not to mention the few times where the driver has cancelled the ride, and left me waiting for a new one to be assigned. Especially troublesome when you are relying upon this service to make a hard deadline at the airport.
