📍 Step by step: how to find your driver in Arrivals

1) Land and head to Arrivals

Follow the Arrivals / Llegadas signs.
If you checked a bag, you’ll go through baggage claim first.

2) Enter the Arrivals hall (public area)

After leaving baggage claim, you’ll reach the Arrivals hall (public area).
That’s where the Meeting Point is, and where your driver normally waits.

3) Look for the sign (name / booking)

Your driver will be holding a sign with:

  • your first name or last name (most common)

Practical tip: if it’s busy, don’t wander around. Stay at Meeting Point and contact us — you’ll find each other faster.

4) Quick plan if you can’t see them (no wandering)

Instead of moving to another area:

  • 🧱 Stay at Meeting Point. Handy reference: Column 5.
  • 📲 Message us on WhatsApp with:
    • Booking name
    • Flight number
    • “I’m at Meeting Point / Column 5”

Copy/paste-ready message:

“Hi, I’ve just arrived at PMI. I’m at Meeting Point (Column 5) and I can’t see the sign. Name: ____. Flight: ____. Thanks.”

  • 🛜 If you don’t have mobile data: connect to the airport Wi-Fi and send the message.
  • 📞 If you don’t use WhatsApp: call us and we’ll guide you the same way.

🧭 “Meeting Point” at PMI: what it really means

At Palma Airport, “Meeting Point” refers to the official meeting area in Arrivals.

The most reliable setup is:

  • ✅ driver in Arrivals with a sign with your name
  • ✅ and, if it’s busy, quick coordination via WhatsApp / phone so you meet without stress

Useful note: Column 5 is often a convenient nearby reference point to wait and coordinate.


⏱️ Flight delays, queues and luggage: how it works (no drama)

If your flight is delayed

If you entered the flight number, we’ve got it covered and we adjust pickup.

  • ✅ Enter the correct flight number in your booking.
  • 🧾 If the flight changes (new flight number) or there are unusual changes (cancellation / reschedule), tell us as soon as possible.

Typical scenarios, changes and how to notify us: changes and cancellations

If you’re delayed by baggage, passport control or long walks

PMI can be slow: queues, passport control (some flights), baggage claim, long walks… it’s normal.

  • ⏳ Practical reference: from landing, it often takes at least ~30 minutes to reach the Meeting Point.
  • 💶 We don’t charge waiting fees if you take longer to come out.
  • 📲 The key: a working phone so we can coordinate.

If your bag is delayed (or lost)

  • 🧳 If you’re waiting for luggage, message/call us and tell us where you are (Meeting Point / Column 5).
  • ✅ There’s no automatic surcharge: it’s handled through coordination based on the real situation.

👶 Travelling with kids (free child seats)

Child seats are included for free on request. Please add them in your booking:

  • 🍼 Maxi-Cosi (newborns)
  • 🪑 Child seat with backrest (indicative: ~1–3 years, depending on height/weight)
  • 🧒 Booster
  • 🧒🪑 Booster with backrest

If you’re unsure, tell us the child’s approximate age and we’ll prepare the right option.

🧳 What to have ready when you get off the plane (to keep it “premium”)

Have this on your phone (or written down):

  • 🧾 Booking name
  • ✈️ Flight number
  • 📍 Final destination (hotel / address)
  • 👥 Passenger count (important: exact)
  • 🧳 Real luggage info (suitcases / backpacks / stroller / etc.)
  • 👶 Baby/child seat request (if applicable)

🚕 Alternatives (and why many choose a transfer)

  • 🚕 Taxi: can be fast, but queues and availability vary.
  • 🚌 Bus: cheap, but less direct (stops + schedules + walking with luggage).
  • 🚗 Car rental: useful if you’ll drive a lot, but adds queues, deposits, parking and stress on arrival.

If you want to leave the airport and be on your way in minutes, a transfer is usually the most convenient: fixed price + driver waiting + door-to-door.
