Give the operating flight
Send the arrival flight number and local date, especially for code-share flights. Ask whether the provider monitors the operating flight and when the included waiting period begins. Do not infer unlimited free waiting.
Send an update after landing
Report immigration or baggage delays once you can communicate. Confirm whether the driver will wait, reposition or offer another plan and what any extra cost would be.
Prepare an offline contact
Keep the written confirmation, phone number, hotel address and meeting instructions accessible without mobile data. Arrange a fallback contact method before travel if your phone will not work in the United States.
Check hotel arrival arrangements
Tell the hotel or host about a very late arrival. A confirmed car does not guarantee that a private apartment has late check-in access or that an accommodation reception will remain staffed.
