Airport pickups for chauffeurs

Pre-arranged black car and limo pickups follow each airport's ground transportation rules. Most airports require commercial vehicles to hold a permit, wait in a designated staging or holding area and only come to the curb or meet the passenger inside once the flight has landed.

Usually, yes. Most major U.S. airports require commercial ground transportation vehicles to be registered or permitted, often with an access fee per trip. The rules are set by each airport, so check the current requirements for your vehicle before your first airport job.

The chauffeur meets the passenger inside the terminal, usually at baggage claim or the arrivals exit, often holding a name sign, and walks them to the car. It is common for executive and first time visitors, and some airports have specific rules for where drivers may wait.

Track the flight before you leave and again on the way. On Uways, open the flight from the job to see delays and the real landing time, and message the job poster in the app if the delay changes your plans.

It depends on the booking. Many operators include a grace period after landing, often longer for international arrivals because of customs. Waiting time beyond that is agreed with whoever booked the trip, so confirm it with the job poster, not the passenger.

Set your mile range around the airports you work. Airport transfers posted by other chauffeurs and operators show up in Uways with the terminal, flight number, passengers and vehicle type before you accept.

LAX, SFO, San Diego, Boston Logan, Chicago O'Hare and Miami, with terminals, drive times and delay tips for each. Uways itself works at airports anywhere in the U.S.
