Where should we meet for a pickup at MCI?
MCI’s single new terminal separates private pickup onto the lower arrivals roadway. Follow arrivals signs, use the passenger’s numbered column, and keep the curb stop limited to loading; the upper departures roadway is not the default family-arrival meeting place.
