Spanish term or phrase: Recogida en el aeropuerto
Estoy traduciendo una especie de folleto sobre el turismo de una región de España. La lengua de partida es el español de España y la lengua de llegada inglés británico estándar. En el folleto aparece en qué consiste el itinerario que se va a seguir. En el primer día, he encontrado que pone "Recogida en el aeropuerto de Barcelona". Me gustaría saber si existe un sustantivo equivalente a "recogida" en la lengua inglesa, puesto que he optado por traducir primero "Pick up in the airport of Barcelona and transportation to..." ¿Qué os parece? ¡Gracias!

Airport pickup


Explanation:
Hola FT

Airport pickup es de uso muy común.

No es necesario usarlo si no quieres, pero en el ejemplo que pones, diría "Pickup at Barcelona Airport and transfer to..."

(Pickup, todo junto, como sustantivo.)

Suerte,

Álvaro :O)

Collection at (Barcelona) airport


Explanation:
"Pickup" can be said, but I think this sounds better.

"Collection at Barcelona airport and transport to selected hotel in the city. Our bilingual guide will pick you up at your hotel for a 3 hours "tapas tour"."

agree  moken: I agree - though I'd say 'more formal' rather than 'better'. Rather depends on the target audience imo - general holidaymakers, senior citizens, doctors attending a conference, etc. :O) :O)
23 mins
  -> You're very kind, Álvaro, and absolutely right that it is not a question of "better" but "more formal". However, on reflection, I now think "Pickup" is more suitable for general purposes, so I shall return the compliment :)
