Before you fly

Review the current entry requirements for your passport and itinerary. Save arrival details, booking confirmations and a contact method that works without relying on airport Wi-Fi.

After landing

Follow signs for immigration, baggage and customs as appropriate to your route. Allow extra time when arranging a pickup because queues and baggage delivery are variable.

Meeting your driver

Agree on the meeting point, contact method, included waiting time and what happens if your flight changes. Make sure the vehicle accommodates both passengers and luggage.

Continuing by train or air

Check whether you need to change terminal, airport or station. Treat a same-day separate-ticket connection cautiously and leave room for delays.
