Taxis are available 24/7 from a designated stand on the ground level, outside the B baggage claim area. Ride-sharing services like Uber and Lyft also serve the airport, with designated pickup zones located on the outer commercial roadway of the ticketing level.
The airport has a dedicated on-site rental car facility. Customers can walk directly from the B baggage claim area to the rental car lobby via a covered walkway. Major companies available include Alamo, Avis, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Hertz, National, and Thrifty.
Public transit is provided by the Memphis Area Transit Authority (MATA). MATA Bus Route 2 serves the airport, connecting it to the Hudson Transit Center downtown. The bus stop is located on the outer drive in front of the C ticketing lobby.
Spent three hour layover at Memphis International Airport - Home of FEDEX. This was a really simple place to navigate and, for an airport, it was immaculate. I have seldom seen such shiny floors. Restrooms were all clean and well serviced. I have heard lots of negative things about Memphis so I was not looking forward to this stop. Fortunately they were mostly myths. The only real negatives were the Delta employees. Everyone to the man seemed to have a chip on their shoulder. Snippy to the point of RUDE. But...that was only Delta employees. Everyone else was unusually polite and friendly. Shopping was pretty good for an airport and there were many varieties of food vendors. All in all, not a bad stop...next time I will fly someone other than Delta.
The FAA has started building a new 336-foot control tower for the Memphis airport, close to the existing one -- it will be finished in 2011:
