Curbside Pickup
Kiss & Ride
Where
Arrival curb outside Baggage Claim (right by the terminal)
Picking upPermittedDrivers can wait in the free Cell Phone Lot until arriving passengers have deplaned, collected luggage and called to be picked up outside Baggage Claim. Go to the arrival curb when your travelers have collected all their luggage and contacted you to tell you which door they are located by. Without a cell phone, a good plan is to arrive 20-30 minutes after the aircraft is scheduled to land.
WaitingNot permittedYou cannot wait on the curbside. The airport changed its curbside waiting policy with safety in mind: an influx of vehicles on the lower level caused frequent congestion that can block the emergency lane. Travelers should bring all their bags outside before contacting you; if they are still waiting for bags to come off the bag belt, you will need to depart the curbside until they are ready to actively load again.
