Meet-and-Greet at UK Airports: What DMCs Need to Know — the RushXO trade guide.
For inbound visitors, the airport meet-and-greet sets the tone for the whole trip. Getting it right is a small detail with a big impact.

This RushXO guide is part of our Tour Operators & Inbound DMCs partnership — covering how the travel trade books fixed-fare ground transport at trade rates or commission, with account billing and a 24/7 desk. RushXO is a Dartford-based, fully licensed operator covering London, Kent and every UK airport.
What good meet-and-greet looks like
A driver inside the terminal with a name board, flight tracking so timing flexes with the flight, luggage help, and a free wait built in.
Kerbside-only pickups fail tired, unfamiliar visitors.
Fixed fares, trade rates and account billing are what make the travel trade work.
RushXO is built around all three — so you can quote, package and resell ground transport without surprises.
Coordinating multiple arrivals
Groups rarely land together.
A desk that can stage several vehicles against several flight numbers, and hold for stragglers, keeps a group arrival calm rather than chaotic.
Why it protects your brand
The first ten minutes on the ground shape the review.
A confident, waiting driver makes the operator look organised; a missed pickup undoes months of planning.
