    Taking an airport ride

    Getting picked up
    1. When you have your bags in hand and you’re ready to go, open up the app to request a ride.
    2. Verify your pin was dropped near the terminal where you are currently waiting, or follow the instructions in the app directing you to the appropriate door.
    3. Once the request has been made, feel free to call your driver to confirm the best location to meet. Please note: Some airports designate specific areas for drivers to pick up passengers. Drivers are required to never leave their vehicle unattended on airport property.
    Getting dropped off
    1. When you have your bags in hand and you are ready to go to the airport, open up the app to request a ride.
    2. Verify your pickup location is correct on the app. If not, move the pin to your location, or change the address manually by typing it in the box.
    3. Let the driver know which airport and terminal you’re going to. You can also enter your destination directly into the app at any point before or during the ride.
    If you feel your party or amount of luggage may overfill a regular 4-door car, we suggest requesting a Lyft XL ride, which can seat up to 6.
    Locating your driver
    As soon as a driver accepts your request, their name, photo, car information, and rating appear in your app.
    You can also see the driver’s ETA and watch as their car approaches on the map to your confirmed pickup location. If you need to, give them a call by tapping the phone icon.
    Cost of a ride
    To view a full pricing breakdown and get an estimate, use our Fare Estimator tool.
    Cancelling a ride
    If you find that you are not quite ready to be picked up, you may cancel your ride through the app using the icon on the top right of the home screen. Keep in mind that in order to avoid being charged a cancellation fee, you need cancel within 5 minutes of making your request.
