How an arrival at CMH works
Your reservation is linked to the flight number, so a delay, a diversion or an early landing moves the pickup time automatically. You are given thirty minutes of complimentary wait from wheels-down on a domestic arrival and ninety on an international one, because immigration and baggage are unpredictable in a way the airline schedule is not.
Curbside pickup is the faster and cheaper option: the chauffeur holds in the cell lot, you text when you have your bags, and the car is at the designated pickup zone within a few minutes. Meet-and-greet puts the chauffeur inside with a name board, helps with luggage and walks you out — the right choice for first-time visitors, guests you are hosting, children, and anyone with mobility needs.
Departures from CMH
For departures we work backwards from the terminal arrival time recommended for your carrier and cabin, add the traffic profile for that specific day and hour, and give you a pickup time. For international departures out of the larger hubs that usually means three hours before scheduled departure; for a domestic morning flight with pre-check it is often ninety minutes.
Getting into Columbus from CMH
John Glenn Columbus International is ten minutes from downtown, among the shortest airport runs of any large American city. The market is state government, insurance and retail headquarters, and Ohio State — whose home football Saturdays move well over a hundred thousand people through a single part of the city.
Local note. Ohio State home Saturdays close the campus road network for most of the day. Downtown to campus that day is a different journey from the one the map shows.
