Overall, it was a decent experience, but I see no real need to do it again. For my regular NRT transfers, I'll stick to my tried and true MK Taxi (although I am a bit curious to see how Uber would compare fare wise). For HND and other intra Tokyo routes, I think I'll simply continue to hop in the first available cab.
IMHO, not needed most of the time when it's easier to just a grab a taxi even though it appears Uber is slightly cheaper than a taxi.

Compared to calling MK or KM, it's a little easier and quicker plus the payment is easier.

Be nice if you could specify the type of car.

I suspect I will use Uber instead of calling MK or KM.
