Haven’t taken the ride yet, but they confirmed the driver will be inside the terminal with a sign. Also liked that cancellation is free up to 24 hours before.

Will update once I’ve done the trip.
Thanks. Yeah that price is the reason I have never done the meet-and-greet service. But that is what has caused me to spend too much time waiting in a queue for a taxi or trying to hunt down my black car/uber driver. Or taking public transportation (the AirTrain to the LIRR or the subway), which is rarely as quick but for me more relaxing,
