Tips for a readable name board

Use the family name if you are collecting a group, avoid long sentences and keep the most important name on its own line. A stationary message is usually easier to read in an arrivals hall than fast scrolling text. Turn up the device brightness manually and keep the screen facing the passenger flow.

Useful pickup messages

Popular labels include “Welcome”, “Airport Pickup”, “Hotel Shuttle”, “VIP Guest”, “Tour Group” and “Meeting Point”. You can also include a flight number, company name or right arrow when it helps the guest identify you.

What is the best font color at an airport?

White or bright yellow on black is readable in most terminals. Black on bright yellow also works well.
