Meet & Greet vs. Curbside Pickup: Which Airport Option Is Right for You?

When you book an airport pickup with Ride Luxury Car, you choose how you want to meet your chauffeur: at the curb or inside the terminal. Both are excellent options — the right one depends on your trip.

Curbside pickup

With curbside pickup, you collect your bags and head outside. Your chauffeur, who has been tracking your flight, meets you at the designated pickup area. You will receive the driver’s name, phone number and vehicle details by text so you can find each other quickly.

Best for: frequent business travelers, carry‑on‑only trips and airports you know well.

Meet & greet (inside pickup)

With meet & greet, your chauffeur waits for you inside the terminal — usually at baggage claim — helps with your luggage and escorts you to the car.

Best for:

• First‑time visitors to a city or airport
• Families traveling with children and car seats
• Travelers with heavy or multiple bags
• VIP guests, clients and executives you are hosting
• Late‑night arrivals after a long‑haul flight

What both options include

• Flight tracking, so your pickup time adjusts to early or late arrivals
• A complimentary 45‑minute wait time for airport pickups
• A professional, uniformed chauffeur and a late‑model vehicle
• Fixed pricing, with no surge at peak times

How to choose

If you want speed and you know the airport, choose curbside. If you want the trip to feel effortless from the moment you land, choose meet & greet. You can simply let us know when you book.
