Has anyone out there ever picked up passengers arriving at the McCarren Airport in Las Vegas in their motorhome? If so, where do you park at the airport or can you drive through to a pickup spot?

It's been a while since I was there so I don't know.BUT I just did a quick memory run of the airports that I have been at lately and NONE of them will accommodate anything larger than a large shuttle van in their customer areas. Even the ones that used to do this don't anymore for "security" reasons.I think you NEED to contact the airport directly and get a specific answer, including detailed routing IN and OUT.....and the person's name and job title who you talk to.I personally think this is a BAD idea.

have the person take a free shuttle to a hotel or rental car lot, and pick them up there, going to be a lot less hectic traffic wise

Dropped off 4 passengers with a 25' class "C" with no problem whatsoever for international flight in April.

Parking will certainly be a problem at the terminal...but to just swing in and pick-up someone can be done at "Arrivals."Full size buses from city transit and from the big hotels do it all day long.You will have to park and wait off site somewhere on a side street and use your cell phone to have your passenger call you when they are out front....then you can swing in and make the pick-up on the fly.

Downtheroad has it right, coaches and transit buses do airport drop offs all the time, so you must have somewhere you can sweep by to pick them up from. Get a map of the airport and ask them where passenger vehicles pick up.
