Title pretty much says it all - I'll be ending a long Colombia trip in Tumaco, and would like to continue on into Ecuador. I know many years ago this was NOT a great place to be/cross, but has the security situation improved? For what it's worth I'm a very experienced traveler with dozens of overland Africa border crossings, but last thing anyone wants is to venture into gang/drug territory.

Assuming it's safe, what's the best way? I assume hire a driver? I'd like to get to Atacames before eventually making my way to Guayaquil.

Uber tricked me into paying for Uber One by asking if I wanted to “try” it with zero disclosure of the fee. After getting the bill I’ve been trying to get a human at support with nothing but an endless chat tree in the app. Is uber support dead unless you use the safety feature? Is there any way to get this horrid company to take responsibility?

Let me preface this by saying I intentionally fly "new" to me airlines and to new airports - the more uncommon the better. Doing this, I've come across: (1) airports with no ICAO/IATA code and (2) airlines that are still mapped to the old owner of their IATA code (i.e. today I flew Z6 - Sunrise Airways Dominica....used to be Dnieproavia Ukraine and Flighty still thinks it is)

I've tried several times to submit requests to support, but they always get ignored and never added. Anyone have a way to get the devs to take us paying members more seriously?
