Airport Pick-ups and Drop-Offs (Knowledge Leads to Increased Earnings)

Knowing the directions to, form and within the airport(s) near you can save drivers time and boost earnings. Here in the San Francisco Bay Area we have three commercial airports: San Francisco International, San Jose Mineta Internal and Oakland International Airports. While on any airport property be sure to display your Uber or Lyft authorization card in the front dashboard of your vehicle at all time. Do your best to memorize the terminal numbers-letters (A, B, C or 1, 2, 3, International, etc.) while also knowing which airlines are located at each terminal. This will save you driving time and avoid going to the wrong terminal. If you are picking-up  a rider(s) be sure to use the designated Ride Sharing "Waiting Area" to get in the queue. At peak travel times you will likely need to double or even triple park. Make sure that your rider(s) have a safe means of entering or exiting your vehicle while you load or unload their baggage in a timely manner. Be aware of pedestrian cross-walks and do not block them with your vehicle. If you are approached by traffic or security guards be polite, apologize for any transgression and promptly be on your way.
