Any of the Uber folks know if I could get an Uber from Gatlinburg to Knoxville at about 3:30 am on a Tuesday? Don't know how active they are at that time and if they'll go that far out for a pickup

Gotta be cheaper than a cab if possible

you could call limo companies. they for sure will do it. Still going to cost a lot though, but limos over a long distance are usually cheaper than cabs.

Can't you plug in the addresses to the app and see? Today or tomorrow should be similar to Tuesday

Shouldn't be a problem, just be sure to tip the driver an extra 20 to keep quiet about the body bag

I'm a Knoxville resident and have used Uber around here quite a bit with good results, but never anywhere close to that far away and especially at that time of night. Money talks though. I'm sure someone would be willing to make the drive

Any other good options to get to the airport from G-burg that early in the morning?


Going on vacation with family but need to fly back on either a Monday night or early Tuesday. I prefer early Tuesday if I can arrange transportation

The good news is that the airport is in Alcoa, not Knoxville. The bad news is it's still an hour drive. If you're flying in/out maybe think about renting a car

I'd call a few taxi companies and letthem know the specifics to see if you can get a hard price.

I understand there's obviously a reason for you to leave at that time, but your not doing your self or wallet any favors.

Also, the airport is just outside of Knoxville/Knox County in Alcoa (Blount County). Something to keep in mind

Alcoa isn't that far from I-40, try Chariots Of Hire they have limos and some new cars to compete with Uber LINK

If he's going from Gatlinburg to Alcoa he won't hit I-40 unless he wants to triple the fee and add more time to his drive.

I'd say they will cut through Wears Valley (beautiful area) from Gatlinburg and then hit one of 2 local highways to get to Alcoa.
