AUS Meet & Greet — Quick Facts
AUS Terminal Meet & Greet Guide
Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) handles 20+ million passengers annually at two facilities — the Barbara Jordan Terminal (main) and the South Terminal (Allegiant Air). The main terminal has seen rapid capacity expansion driven by Austin's tech industry growth and the relocation of Tesla, Apple, and Oracle regional headquarters. Your driver knows which terminal, which carousel, and whether customs processing is required, before you land.
Barbara Jordan Terminal — Domestic Arrivals
The Barbara Jordan Terminal handles Southwest Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, Alaska Airlines, Spirit, Frontier, and most other carriers operating at AUS. Baggage claim is on Level 1 (ground floor), accessible via escalator or elevator from the upper gate level. Your driver is at the carousel for your flight with your name sign as you descend from the gate concourse.
Driver meets: Level 1 baggage claim, Barbara Jordan Terminal
Barbara Jordan Terminal — International Arrivals (60-min wait)
AUS receives international flights including British Airways nonstop from London Heathrow (LHR) and service from Mexico City, Cancún, and other Latin American destinations. All international passengers clear U.S. Customs and Border Protection at AUS before accessing the Level 1 public area. Detailed Drivers provides a complimentary 60-minute wait for all international AUS arrivals.
Driver meets: International arrivals hall, Level 1, past CBP exit
South Terminal — Allegiant Air
AUS South Terminal is a separate, smaller facility approximately 1 mile from the Barbara Jordan Terminal, used exclusively by Allegiant Air for ultra-low-cost domestic routes. It has its own baggage claim and curbside area. If you're flying Allegiant, specify this when booking — your driver will be at the South Terminal, not the main terminal.
Driver meets: South Terminal baggage claim (specify Allegiant when booking)

AUS Meet & Greet vs Uber / Lyft
Austin consistently ranks among the top 5 rideshare surge cities in the US during SXSW, ACL, and F1 weekends. Uber and Lyft do not offer inside terminal pickup — they require you to exit the terminal, walk to the rideshare staging lot on Level 1 curbside, and wait in Austin heat or rain. During SXSW, AUS rideshare queues average 20–35 minutes. Detailed Drivers meets you inside, at baggage claim, driver already there.
