[Lnc-business] Inexpensive ground transportation - LNC Session in Phoenix

[Nicholas Sarwark]

Something in between.  The deal the city has with Uber requires Uber
Black or above, because they have to have a permit to pick up at the
airport.  Moving the pin or moving yourself outside the airport zone
deals with it, or just take the nicer car (I sometimes take Uber Black
to get home because it's less hassle).

A cab shouldn't be bad cost wise, but it's a cab.
