Meeting your driver at Cancun Airport

After immigration and customs, walk straight through the exit hall – the people inside offering “free” transport or tours are mostly timeshare sellers. Your driver waits outside the terminal with a sign with your name; the confirmation email has the exact meeting point. Drivers track your flight, so a delay is not a problem.

Flights land at Terminal 2, Terminal 3 or Terminal 4 depending on the airline – check the live arrivals board.
