It’s the question everyone has been asking– Can I get picked up by a rideshare driver at the airport? We did some research to find out which of the major airports allow rideshare pickups, and which currently do not!
Keep in mind for those airports that do allow rideshare services to pickup passengers, there are restrictions! In order for rideshares to get permission to operate at certain airports, an “airport charge” may be added to your trip. This charge can range from $2 to $5 extra, and is dependent on the specific airport. Also, some airports currently allow Uber to operate, but only through services such as UberBLACK and UberSUV, which are typically more expensive than the standard UberX ride.
Designated Pickup Areas: Most major airports are now enforcing designated pickup locations for rideshare. When you get off the plane, follow the signs for Ground Transportation, and then look for signs labeled "App Rides", "TNCs", "TNEs" or "Rideshares."
