COMPARE AT A GLANCE
Practical comparison
| 0 | 1 | 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Assuming the terminal | Driver and traveler wait in different buildings | Check the current flight tracker and send the terminal |
| Leaving baggage claim too soon | Airline report becomes harder to create | Report missing or damaged luggage before exiting |
| Stopping at the first transportation desk | Traveler follows a company unrelated to the reservation | Use the meeting point in the original confirmation |
| Buying the ride twice | Traveler pays again while the driver is still waiting | Contact the original provider first |
| Not confirming price or currency | Unexpected total or disagreement | Confirm written price, currency and inclusions |
| Scheduling a tight arrival-day activity | Immigration or baggage delays cause a missed booking | Keep the first day flexible |

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What should I do if I cannot find my transfer driver?
Stay near the meeting point in the original confirmation and contact the provider before purchasing another ride.
Should I give a transportation representative my passport?
Transportation representatives normally do not need to retain your passport. Immigration and customs officers may need to inspect it.
How much extra time should I allow after landing?
There is no guaranteed exit time. Keep arrival-day plans flexible and avoid tight nonrefundable commitments.
