Anyone know about Uber to GSP? Have you used this service? Cost? We need to transport 6 people with luggage from Verdae to GSP at the end of the month. How do you find more, about Uber for such a need? Thanks.

While you can do drop offs with Uber to GSP you probably won't get picked up there by Uber. GSP Police have been ticketing uber drivers doing pickups that don't have the $300 airport permit. Just something to consider if you need a round trip.

You will need to use the Uber XL service for the number of passengers you have (usually a minivan). I believe the app will give you estimates, but Uber does raise prices during certain time ("surge pricing").

Default Alternatives to Uber??

Besides the obvious Taxi ride to GSP, what are some other choices? Is there an outfit in Greenville, that has a service to GSP? Round Trip?

Atchison Transport would be the only other option I can think of (Atchison Transport Services). They are the ones that actually operate out of GSP. But I am not sure they have any vans, its basically towncars, limos, or buses. They might be worth a call. The last time I used them it was about $40 one way for a 10 mile ride.

If your goal is to just save on parking... Unless I am going to be gone more than 2 weeks I have never found a option that is cheaper than driving and parking in economy.

I'm with Mike on this one. Parking is really cheap and really close at GSP. It is more of a hassle to find another way there than to park and walk into the terminal.
