The Uber site advises that youll be directed to your pick up point by the app once you book your ride: uber/global/en/r/airports/tpa/pickup/ |

srh slightly serious Dibber
Join Date: Dec 14 | We always use Tampa and flew in only 5 days ago. My big tip is use the MPA, mobile passport app. Download and pre fill as much as you can then as soon as you get Wi-Fi just complete it. When you get to immigration take the left hand lane for MPA and Global Entry. __________________ |

Help plz ? __________________ |

Help plz ? The baggage claim in the main terminal is the domestic baggage claim, which you won't use arriving on an international flight. The international baggage claim is in Airside F, where customs and the international arrival gates are. OP's order would have been correct (minus the immigration part) if they were talking about arriving on a domestic flight - in that case, you do take the monorail before baggage claim.
