Can't get Uber to LHR Terminal 5
Hi all,
I'm flying to Austin today and tried this morning to get my usual Uber to T5 this morning. I was surprised when the app asked me to confirm the airline I was flying with (I thought T5 was now back to exclusively BA?). I was more surprised when untold amounts of pressing / restarting / anything wouldn't get me past that screen... In the end I had to use my wife's phone which didn't ask me for the airline to get the cab.
Anyone else experienced? Any work arounds?
Only loosely BA related I know but hopefully allowed!
