This way you are assured that someone is waiting for you at the airport & take you to your destination to avoid having to wait in a long taxi queue or locating one. Our driver was very nice & helpful, but he was a little late. I went to our meeting point and was walking around looking at every sign being held up to find mine but did not find it until my 2nd go round in the meeting hall. This was a little unsettling because there were 7 of us and it would be very…”
