I paid $65.28 (before tip) for a Lyft from downtown to SFO last night (14.27 miles), for a $120 flight to DEN.
I'd like to think that Uber/Lyft changed the industry for the better (and in many ways they did: app is easier, upfront pricing, easier/safer payment, more accountability through location tracking and ratings), but I don't think that the underlying economics have changed all that much (other than the period of time where Sand Hill Road was footing half the bill).
