subject: When I'm At Midway Airport, Where Do I Get A Taxi? [print this page] Finding a taxi after you've flown into an airport is always the first thing that you want to do after picking up your baggage. No one flies into a new city in order to hang out in the airport! Every single person that flies into a new city has got a meeting to get to, sites to see, a hotel to check into, or a business appointment to attend. A great many of these people are going to want to use taxi services to get them to their destinations. It's always great to know where to access these services before you fly, that way it minimized frustration and time spent looking for them after you land.
Finding your Taxi at the Midway Airport is not going to be a difficult manner. The front of the terminal is clearly marked, as is the taxi stand. After you have collected your baggage and cleared customs if necessary, you should simply follow the signs that will guide to where the ground transportation pickups take place. There are some things to keep in mind before you do this though.
First of all, you're going to want to have called and booked ahead in order to reserve a cab. These airports are extremely busy with people coming and going, and as such, the rules for cabs differ slightly than they do at other locations. There are actually airport security personnel who have the job of making sure that the locations for ground pickup stay moving smoothly. This means that taxis aren't allowed to simply wait around waiting for customers, so you're going to have to call and request a car to come and pick you up.
This also means that you're going to have to make some preparations when you're getting ready to go out to your car. You should make sure that you have all of your baggage organized and in your hands, ready to load into the car. The car will not be able to wait while you run in and out of the terminal, nor will they be able to come in and assist you with your bags in most cases. You will need to be curbside and ready to load into the cab in order to assure a smooth pickup. Don't let this worry you though. Getting a cab from Midway is a simple procedure, and you should be on your way to your destination in the city in no time.
