[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get it.  I travel internationally for work ALL THE TIME and I never had (or asked, or wanted) my DH to drop me off or pick me up.  There's only a handful of times where it could be actually possible because with three young kids, there is always pick up, drop off, activities or any other reason why his time is better spent with them than at the airport.  I take Uber and don't think about it another second.

Family or friends flying into BWI at 6 bloody am? Take an Uber! It's downright rude to expect pick up at this time at this location.

I drive to pick up visiting family from overseas who don't speak English, aren't used to this environment, and whose visit is a genuine EVENT.  But for others, it's just silly and dramatic to expect.  And I'm an immigrant from a minority culture, as is my DH. [/quote]

Yes, let's be clear -- you are picking up your 30 year American sister in law who was independent enough to get herself on a cross country redeye.  This isn't picking up grandma whose just crossed an ocean to see you.[/quote]
