Planning your Luton pickup
The airport has a designated Pick Up and Drop Off zone and other parking options. Collection arrangements differ from parking to meet someone inside; confirm the arrangement and allow time to reach the vehicle.
For P5 meet-and-greet bookings, check your confirmation for the meeting point and contact details. Keep your phone available after landing, and contact the team if baggage, immigration or assistance takes longer than expected. Do not move to a different terminal or car park without agreeing it with your driver.
