Anyone had success get reinstated to pick up at airports again? I got banned from airport pickup and drops off because of cancellations they claim. They claim it’s permanent but hoping someone can recommend advice
It's permanent. The minute Uber found out you learned how to game the system at airports, they know you'll never unlearn the system. It's a one-way street with Uber -- Uber scams the driver, but driver does not scam Uber.

I suggest you first try emailing them. Tell them you're sorry and if they reinstate you, you won't do whatever it was in the future. Maybe you'll get lucky. If not you can see from there and maybe consider going to a Greenlight Hub, if it's important enough to you.
I've never heard of anyone being banned from rides TO the airport.
And frankly, I can't think of any advantage at all to Uber in banning you from airport trips. That just hurts efficiency and is bad for the community! Longer wait for the pax, longer pickup drive for their driver. Loco.
It also means someone has to go in and do some special coding on your account to screen every one of your ride requests to be sure the destination is not the airport. Makes no sense.
Uber uses warnings, temporary suspensions, and permanent sanctions. When they say permanent, they mean permanent...not "We're like really, really disappointed with you."
One of these articles stated that Uber will now work to try to reinstate drivers that have been kicked off the platform and more transparent as to why a driver was kicked off in the first place. Whether or not Uber decides to adhere to it is a different story.
I am also permanently banned to and from the airport. Although I don't care about the pick ups but I used get a lot of airport filters. I called them twice but they said its permanent. I changed my city that didn't work either. The only option I see to deactivate your account and ask them to remove it from their system then reapply.

Airport bans are usually because the airport demands it. They demand certain stats regarding pickups and cancellations, as well as behavior. Tick off a single PA cop bad enough a single time and they CAN ban you from picking up ever again.
They don't want departing plane pax waiting forever for a p/u because drivers keep cancelling or because nobody is accepting pings to drive up surge. They want them safely off the campus as quickly as possible.
Have you thought about cash bribes, groveling, or prostituting yourself to the GLH rep? Everyone has a price. How low are you willing to go for those sweet sweet airport rides?
I agree I liked it until the rematch stopped. Hoping the Diamond Ant Rematch is meaningful and not something lame like bump up 50 spots (out of 200+). Should have diamond ant status in 2 wks or less
I am only part-time and had a bad week at airport- 2 people who refused to walk to ride share (I cancelled after waiting and cancellation came up), another no car seat. Anyway- had 5 cancellations in a week- on 27 rides and bam I got banned. 1 ride I decided to text and ask where they were going (was late- and couldn’t decide to head home) it was opposite way so I told them I was farther away than I thought and I was cancelling (bad decision)- I canceled and went home and went to bed. Bottom line is seriously uber- 1 bad decision. I don’t cherry pick, 1 bad week and after over a year of driving, 4.97 rating. Never a rating below 4- banned from airport. I tried talking to them-
Final. Uber doesn’t give a crap!!!
