When planning to pick someone up from the airport, timing is crucial. You want to be there when their plane lands, but you also don’t want to be waiting around for hours. So, how early should you arrive?
A good rule of thumb is to aim for 30 minutes after the scheduled landing time. This allows for any minor delays in the flight and gives the person you’re picking up time to disembark, collect their luggage, and navigate through the airport.
However, this can vary depending on several factors. If the person you’re picking up has checked luggage, it may take longer for them to get out of the airport. International flights can also add extra time due to customs and immigration processes.
Another factor is the size and busyness of the airport itself. Larger airports can have long walks from the gate to baggage claim, and busy airports can have congested pickup areas that slow things down.
