Cathy D Agostino waited more than 90 minutes for an Uber ride Friday after returning from a trip to Green Bay, Wis., for a family gathering, arriving at her Colorado Springs home at midnight.
She wasn t alone â two flights arrived at the same time and she and her husband Tom D Agostino were among the first to get a ride with dozens of others waiting even longer, she said. Similar logjams happened May 20 and Sunday, and are happening across the nation as transportation companies Lyft and Uber and taxi providers struggle to recall or hire enough drivers to meet surging demand for airport ground transportation.
