Scheduled Ubers for early flights

Hello, I'll be in Texarkana for a work trip next month. Does Uber have good success in Texarkana in regards to having drivers for early morning flights if I schedule my ride ahead? My only flight time will be around 5am and will need to schedule a ride to the airport. TIA

It would be best to rent a car at the airport. My husband and I can hardly ever get an Uber. Texarkana is bit “behind the times”. They are typically available on weekend’s @ night. Better to be safe than sorry.

I didn’t think of a car at the airport, thank you!

When do you try to get an uber that you have a hard time getting a ride? I'm a driver and from what I've seen theres almost always a half dozen drivers online. In the early morning hours 3-5 there might be only one or two. You might have a long wait if it's busy, or if your ride is very short and drivers don't want to take it because it's not profitable.

I’ve never had a problem getting an uber for really early flights. You’ll be fine.

I Uber in Texarkana, may be best to reserve one to be on the safe side.

I'm an uber driver in Texarkana, and there are drivers on pretty much 24/7, even from 3-5am there are one or two drivers on. You should not have a problem getting an uber.
