Since POP airport is closed for repairs until May 18, I am flying to STI this Saturday morning.
I am hoping I can arrange for an Uber to bring me to Cabarete…
Does anyone have experience getting an Uber at STI airport without possible drama with taxi mafia?

or does anyone know a reasonable driver who will drive STI to Cabarete for $4,000 pesos
JetBlue arrives at STI @10:26am, Saturday.

Yes, I have the Uber app.
I have used it in Santo Domingo and Santiago

My question is about using Uber at the STI airport…

I had plans to return to RD this weekend but was surprised to see no UAL flights to POP.

Thank you for telling us the airport is closed !

Good luck with your taxi/Uber

Cabarete
why not just take Caribe Tours or Metro bus from Sosua to Santo Domingo and then an Uber from the bus station? If you don't have anyone that can take you from Cabarete to Sosua then grab a cab.

She wants to travel from the Santiago airport to Cabarete. Where did you get the idea that she wants to go to Santo Domingo?

Exactly, La Profe, Some people have no reading comprehension.
I have stated various times on here that the taxi unions and UBER have reached an agreement for taxis to use the UBER app.

UBER also now allows drivers (both taxis and Uber drivers) to offer a rate other than the published rates.

Why not take take a bus from Sosua down to Santiago then a hop in a concho/ public car?

I took a concho (PA car) from downtown Santiago to the airport on Wednesday for 65 pesos.
It dropped me off at the front gate.
