PIT pickup questions
What starts the PIT pickup approach?
The transformed terminal separates flight arrival from curb readiness. Use that condition, rather than the flight-status change, to decide when the vehicle should approach.
What must happen before the PIT driver leaves staging?
Wait through deplaning and baggage collection before approaching. Confirm that step directly with the traveler before leaving staging.
What can still change the PIT timing?
The passenger should report a middle-level baggage-claim exit position. Recheck the current airport guidance when that condition affects the final approach.
