Uber pickup at McCarran?

Has anyone used Uber at McCarran? Googled new reports state Uber was not allowed to pickup at McCarran but those articles are now several months old. Wondering if anyone has used Uber at the airport and how was their experience.

About a month ago, I had a chance to chat with an Uber driver. He said that in reality, they are not allowed to officially pick up passengers at McCarren, but he said he just talks to the client before arriving at the airport to confirm all the details. He even said that they remove any indication that they work for Uber and has gone as far as saying that he was "the uncle" picking up somebody.

Thanks for the info. I would prefer Uber (or Lyft) over a taxi. No worries about long-hauling and the rate will likely be better. A day after I posted my question there was a news report about Lyft on LVA's home page. Now that Lyft can operate out of McCarran I assume Uber will work out an agreement as well.

On Monday, Lyft became the first ride-sharing service authorized to pick up passengers at McCarran.

Thanks for the link Chilcoot. The discount code is a nice perk.
