Orlando International Airport is suing Uber, ordering its drivers to stay off its property and seeking $150,000 in damages because the ride-sharing company isn't paying any fees.
"There are approximately 600 companies which operate 7,000 vehicles that follow the rules at the airport. Uber is not complying; therefore, the authority has been compelled to file a lawsuit," said Orlando International Director Phil Brown.
No hearing date has been set for the suit.

One Uber official would not comment, while another could not be reached. Twelve people who drive for Uber also were named in the suit. Each has been issued a ticket at the airport in recent months.
Uber has been sued by government agencies and competitors in more than a dozen cities for not following the rules about vehicles for hire in those areas. Earlier this month, Uber stopped serving Pittsburgh International Airport after its drivers were issued tickets, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
