How do I arrange a Lift pickup at the Chicago O'Hare airport prior to arriving?
The Guru Take
Schedule your Lyft ride in the app
In your Lyft app, when selecting your pickup location there is an option to set a desired time for pickup. All you have to do is click on the icon and Lyft will automatically schedule your ride for the desired time. Once you schedule your ride, Lyft will "lock" the price to make sure you are not paying more. For more information visit this article here.

Uber and Lyft are not per person. Price is for car you request.
Uber X and Lyft = up to 4 passengers + luggage
Uber XL and Lyft XL = up to 6 passengers + luggage
Uber Pool & Lyft Shared = 2 passengers
FYI - TIP
Make sure if you are ordering Uber X or Lyft you can also fit all your luggage. Often riders request an Uber X or Lyft for 4 passengers, 4 XL suitcases, duffel bags, lap top cases, and backpacks. If you have a decent amount of luggage you may want to go with XL. Its a few $''s more but much more comfortable.
A Ford Focus for example will fit 4 but can be a little cramped in backseat depending on size of people. If you have a lot of luggage & a bag or 2 that dont fit in trunk you dont really have the room in the car for it. All too often people dont realize that smaller cars are cramped enough with 3 med to large adults in backseat. Adding a few bags will only make it more uncomfortable. Dont waste your time or the drivers. Plan ahead. Will make life easier for y…

4 riders + lots of luggage = uncomfortable trip
Please consider tipping your driver unless there are issues (dirty car, rude driver driver, unsafe, etc) especially if they help with the luggage. Longer trips can cause driver to head back empty or to sit in an airport queue for up to 2 hrs until they get another ride:) It also takes time to load and unload 4 riders with luggage (lost time = lost $). Driver is making .10 /.20 per minute when idle. Safe travels.
At the very least $3/$5 10% or more best:)
You be the judge (obviously:)
