I wonder what would happen if you have a promo code in your account from before?

Would it use up a ride?

Also wish they put an expiration date to the promo as I would like to get in, but not waste extra days now when I'm not going to start to use it.

This is insane. Commute every day to work for $2.99, only 24 cents more than the subway.

200,000 people deleting Uber in a couple of days will do that.

Classic case of unintended consequences.

You #deleteuber in support of immigrants, and cause these price drops which worst effect the predominantly immigrant drivers.

If you need to go to the airport, you can take an Uber to Long Term Parking and take the free AirTrain to your terminal.
Great hack. Just checked from my house to long term parking, and it showed $2.99/$5.99.
Dan said you can ask them to initiate/end the trip out of the air port, but this is more reliable.

Looks like it is available in a bunch of cities. Type in https://www.uber.com/info/plus/YOURCITYNAMEHERE/ to see if you can get the deal.

Wiki added, please add other cities you can find.

Ha! https://www.uber.com/info/plus/pittsburgh/ doesn't even exist!

You ask for 2 seats, which will cost you an extra dollar
ETA: the app asks you if you need one or two seats before getting you your car.
