I agree with the 4:30 departure from the hotel at the latest. Add a few minutes to check bags, and some extra for security, and 4:15 may look better to be safe. I'm guessing Monday morning might be busy with business travelers.Thanks! Checking bags, not prechecked. I plan to speak to the front desk as well about options & availability.
It will be busier with biz travelers, but not that early. Most biz travelers aren't going to get up at 0 dark thirty when travelling on Other People's Money.I agree with the 4:30 departure from the hotel at the latest.

I was thinking possibly getting the 0700-0800 flights depending on where they need to be and when.It will be busier with biz travelers, but not that early. Most biz travelers aren't going to get up at 0 dark thirty when travelling on Other People's Money.
Please do yourself a massive favor and book car service ASAP. Last minute, most companies aren’t going to have too many drivers on the road at that hour. Don’t wait to speak to the front desk.Thanks!

If Biz travelers need to be somewhere that bad, most are going to go out the day before. The exception being those that own the business. But for employees, no way I'm getting up at 0400 to save the company a few bucks. Especially since I'm hourly and only get paid during my "regular working hours" for travel.I was thinking possibly getting the 0700-0800 flights depending on where they need to be and when.

That is no longer the case. They now send scheduled ride requests out to drivers a day or so in advance. Drivers have to be online at least an hour before the reservation, and rides before that will be in the direction of the pickup.Don't count on "scheduled" Ubers to work out how you want to. All the "scheduling" does is put the ride into the queue at a certain time. There is no guarantee of service or timing and you don't go to the front of the line. If you actually want a scheduled pick up, it's a much safer idea to book with one of the point to point companies or book a taxi.
I suggest, if you have the time, post this observation, in other threads where posters suggest cutting the timing close.but many people did not plan well & missed their flights. It was 30+ minutes for TSA at 0530 today.
