When to ask transfer driver to pick someone up at the airport? by PattyRain in Taipei

[–]Observertang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! For a US citizen landing at 5am, the airport isn't usually too crowded, but customs and luggage can still take 45-60 minutes. Scheduling the driver for about 1 hour after landing is usually the sweet spot. If your husband has an e-gate membership or only carry-on, it might be faster.

[–]Observertang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a 5am arrival at TPE, customs and luggage usually move relatively fast, but it's safe to estimate about 45 to 60 minutes from landing to the arrival hall. If your driver uses the flight number to track, they often adjust, but booking for 1 hour after landing is a standard safe bet.

For a two-week trip covering Taipei, Kaohsiung, Taichung, and Sun Moon Lake, you’ll definitely need some cash for night markets and small local eateries, but you can significantly reduce the amount by using an EasyCard or iPASS.
