Cities that have subways inside their airports are the ultimate cheat code in saving

[UberEatsDriver]

Got the Atlanta yesterday and the Uber price had the audacity to tell me it would be $75 dollars to get to my hotel. Never seen these prices for Uber in ATL before and the other people waiting for Uber agreed.

i saw the ATL subway was only 2.50-3.50. Ran on that shyt and took it to where I had to go and then took a uber the rest of the way for $15.


I saved $57 dollars and the trip was only 20 minutes longer than it would have been using uber.


Sorry but as frugal person I can’t convince myself to use another option of option B is going to save a significant amount of money.


On the ATL subway I saw a group of preppy white boys and girls from Long Island who were in town for some competition. Rich kids so I didn’t feel bad at all

Cities without metro at the airport are clown cities, who don't take being a city serious.

Yea and even though NYC has the air train at JFK it’s still a clown and ironic poor planning since no subway goes to either and LaGuardia has none to begin.

London has Elizabeth Line (soon) and Piccadilly line going directly to London Heathrow.

So useful mid week, on the weekend though

I'm so thankful for the MARTA. I can literally take the train from the Airport to my neighborhood if need be. It's clutch as hell. A bunch of crazy homeless people, but clutch nonetheless.

Yea a lot of weirdos on that subway but efficient. I’m thinking I might take it back to the airport Tuesday morning

I can just take the train from my apartment here in Denver all the way to the airport. Super convenient.

Yeah and you have to pay to enter and exit and leave the airtrain itself trying to get back on the train

That sucks too even though it’s still cheaper than nyc Ubers. The MTA needs to buy that shyt and make it one system

This must’ve been one outside of the airport? I had a connecting flight in ATL last December and took a subway from one terminal to the other, but that shyt was free. Seen similar in other airports

I prefer TFL rail. Piccadilly line is slow and the heathrow express is too expensive

Major cities not having direct rail to airports is an embarrassment. LaGuardia will forever be a joke to me for that reason. I always use Marta in Atlanta. It’s faster if you need to get to midtown or other areas well served by it

It's done on purpose to support the other forms of transportation. Las Vegas is the most blatant and comical.
