Flight monitoring is the technology that keeps your airport taxi pickup aligned with your actual arrival time. This guide explains how it works and why it matters for pre-booked transfers.
How flight monitoring works
When you provide your flight number at booking, the system tracks your flight using live aviation data. Your driver receives automatic updates on your estimated arrival time, including gate changes and delays.
- Flight status is checked continuously from departure to landing.
- Your driver sees real-time updates without you needing to call.
- Pickup timing adjusts automatically to match your actual landing.
From landing to pickup
Once your flight touches down, your driver receives a landing notification and heads to the agreed pickup point. By the time you clear baggage and customs, your driver is ready and waiting.
