Perth Airport has separate kerbside bays for taxis, rideshare and pre-booked drivers at every terminal
Perth Airport operates separate kerbside zones for taxi rank pickups, rideshare collections and pre-booked private hire at every terminal. Knowing which zone applies to your booking type avoids the most common cause of delayed airport pickups.

Taxi rank vs pre-booked priority bay
The taxi rank is first-come-first-served from a holding queue. Pre-booked taxis use a separate priority bay with a dedicated bay number sent in the driver SMS.
Rideshare pickup zones
Uber and Ola pickups happen on the upper roadway at T1 and at dedicated rideshare bays at T3/T4. Different zones, different walk distance — taxis are always closer to Arrivals exit doors.
