Detailed Drivers is Phoenix's premier airport meet and greet service, providing inside-terminal baggage claim pickups at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) across all three terminals — Terminal 2 (Southwest), Terminal 3 (Delta/Alaska), and Terminal 4 (American Airlines hub, international). Your professional chauffeur waits at the baggage claim level with a name sign. Sedan transfers from PHX to downtown Phoenix start from $120+ — no surge during Cardinals games at State Farm Stadium, Diamondbacks games at Chase Field, or Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale. Complimentary wait: 60 minutes domestic, 90 minutes international. As of 2026, Detailed Drivers serves 30+ cities across the United States.
Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) has three active terminals — Terminal 2, Terminal 3, and Terminal 4 — connected by the PHX Sky Train automated people mover. Each terminal has its own baggage claim level. Specify your terminal at booking so your chauffeur goes directly to the correct baggage claim area. PHX handled 48 million passengers in 2023, making it the 10th busiest airport in the United States.
Airlines: Southwest Airlines, WestJet
PHX's busiest terminal by passenger volume. Southwest operates all gates here. Baggage claim: lower level, carousels 1–4. Your chauffeur waits near carousel 1 with a name sign. Terminal 2 is the westernmost terminal — Sky Train stop at "Terminal 2."
Airlines: Delta Air Lines, Alaska Airlines, Frontier Airlines, Spirit Airlines, Sun Country
Mid-terminal. Domestic carriers other than American and Southwest. Baggage claim: lower level, carousels 5–8. Your chauffeur waits near carousel 5 with a name sign. Sky Train stop at "Terminal 3." Walk time from gates to baggage claim: 8–12 minutes including escalator/elevator.
Airlines: American Airlines (primary hub), United, British Airways, Lufthansa, Aeromexico, Air Canada, WestJet transborder
PHX's largest terminal. American Airlines operates PHX as a major connecting hub. International arrivals clear US Customs and Border Protection at the federal inspection area on the lower level before accessing baggage claim carousels 9–14. Your chauffeur waits at the baggage claim area exit after customs. Complimentary wait time: 90 minutes for international arrivals. Sky Train stop at "Terminal 4."
All PHX meet and greet transfers are locked at booking — pricing does not change during Cardinals playoff games at State Farm Stadium, NBA Finals Suns games at Footprint Center, or spring training weekends across the Cactus League.

Uber and Lyft do not provide inside-terminal meet and greet at PHX. Rideshare drivers queue in the designated Rideshare Pickup area on the ground transportation level — a different level from baggage claim. You must navigate from baggage claim, through the terminal, to the ground level pickup zone while managing luggage, often in Phoenix's summer heat exceeding 110°F. Detailed Drivers eliminates this by meeting you at baggage claim.
