Tried to book Lyft a day on advance here in Pittsburgh. Didn’t work. Driver was dispatched immediately. Had to cancel. Is ordering in advance not available here?

A ride like that should be under $15
Booking in advance may help if you're traveling during high demand hours when surge/primetime may affect be in effect, but if you need to cancel, the cancellation fee on a scheduled ride is generally higher.
Personally, I'd just wait on ordering your ride until 5-10 minutes before you're ready to go.
