Scheduling rides
Recently Uber has started allowing riders to schedule rides in advance in a few select markets. To see if you can schedule a ride in your area, open your Uber app and if near the bottom of the screen you see a button that says "Schedule A Ride", you are in luck! If you do not see a "Schedule A Ride" button, unfortunately, that means that Uber has not yet rolled out scheduled rides in your area. For more information on scheduling an Uber ride check out this step by step article.

Hello Dan:
In addition to what Ippei said, You can schedule an Uber ride using the Kommen app. Note- we are also available in cities where Uber doesn't currently allow for scheduling .
