That will be a mess when taxis etc. drop people off on the wrong side of the departures level roadway in front of the terminal. You cannot cross the street here (physical barriers) and would be forced to go inside and either up one level to the skyway or down two levels to the basement below baggage claim to get to the other side.....unless you notice soon enough and inside that the taxi/uber/car service go the whole way around to drop you on the parking ramp side.

This will likely hurt SkyCap business and tips as well as inconveniencing those who are willing to tip in order to have a more convenient airport experience.
