More Hilarious Airport Pick-Up Signs You Must See

As we’ve already established, despite our best efforts, life is far from being a rom-com. Rushing to the airport to greet the love of your life or your long-lost cousin may seem like a good idea, but if you don’t have a sign in hand, they may not know it’s you!
Instagram/@saramcmann & @zarasimmons & @rndm_ctzn & @sachavdbg & @clarekfield

Some of these signs are original and heartwarming. While others had the person being greeted so embarrassed they probably wanted to hop back on a plane. We’ve rounded up yet another list of solid gold airport signs so awkwardly sincere and sincerely awkward that they’ll be sure to have you taking a taxi home on your next business trip.

Oh, Is That What’s on the Sign?

The best way to greet someone at the airport is with embarrassment. This article is pretty clear evidence of that fact. This wife decided to give people something to stare at by writing (according to the attached story) an entirely false sign to greet her hubby.

Instagram/@purple_fairytale


We do hope that the husband is a fan of this kind of humor, and we hope that the wife is willing to feel some of the heat the next time she goes on her own trip. The husband could even use the same sign! Now there’s a twist.

Hard to Miss

There are a lot of people at airports. So many people that – if you’re looking for a specific person or group of people – it might be impossible to see them in the thronging crowds. Of course, there’s no way in the world to miss this pair, even if the guy looks perfectly normal. The lady, on the other hand, is…well, she stands out.

Instagram/@darlindarthy


Why would she think to wear a big pickle costume for picking up Trevor from the airport? Our guess is it’s an inside joke that we’ll never understand. And the detail on that sign is quite wonderful; we have to admit.

It’s Probably Funny to Some People

So, is this person waiting for Edward Cullen at the airport? Is he waiting for Robert Pattinson? No, it turns out that HE was the person who was flying into town, and his friends thought it would be funny to make this sign.

Instagram/@heyhyahello


Are they saying that he looks just like R-Pat? He…doesn’t, really. Well, yeah, he has sort of the same face shape and sort of the same skin tone and similar hair color, but that’s about it. Maybe he’s really into vampires? Or the “Twilight” series? He clearly doesn’t sparkle in the sunlight. This photo is proof.

We Have Places to Be

Many of the signs on this list are happy, nay, THRILLED, to see the person off the plane again. A lot of them, but not all of them. This sign, for instance, tells us that this person had just enough time to make a sign, and that was about it. Get that luggage in the trunk and buckle up, it’s cold out here. Or too hot. Something like that.

Instagram/@bakpaknikknakk


Look, not everybody can be clever, and some people have to work during the day. They can’t just sit and think of funny airport signs all the time.

Kids Need Their Grandma

It might not seem obvious, but kids should really have a good relationship with their grandparents. On the flip side, grandparents really benefit from being in their grandchildren’s lives. These three tots are fully aware that their Nana is a big part of their lives, and they have the airport signs to prove it.

Instagram/@amber_lowery1126


Each of them has something different – apparently, their Nana has been jet-setting around the world for a year now, and they’re thrilled to have her back in their lives. We can just imagine the happy smiles and hugs that were had by all once Nana got off the plane.

Too Much Information – Airport Sign Edition

We’re going to go out on a limb and guess that this sign is purely a work of fiction, but we almost hope that it isn’t. That’s clever. There’s also so much detail on this sign that we bet more than one person had to stop and stare while they read it for a few minutes.

Instagram/@drjbattorneyatlaw


We can’t even read the tiny script that is in the lower right corner, so we don’t even get to know the whole story. All the little stick figures – the one in the center only has half a booty – are the finishing touch on this winner.

Yes, Very Pleasant, Glad to Be Back

This is an adorable little picture of an adorable little squirt holding a funny sign, but we’d love to know the backstory behind that kind of sign. Uncle Witty sounds like the kind of guy that would make a trek to Roswell just for the kicks and giggles, but maybe there was something more.

Instagram/@woodys_pyro_tools


Maybe he was actually abducted, and this sign is for when the government is finally done asking him questions. Other than those two options, there are a few ideas coming to mind. Well, we’re sure that Uncle Woody will tell us all about meeting the extra-terrestrials.

That Will Teach You to Leave Me

Airport pick-up signs aren’t really all that necessary these days, but they still show up all over the place in a new format – embarrassment. Let it be known that the spelling on this sign is one hundred percent intentional, and it’s all to give Adam, whoever he is, a big red blush. On his face.

Instagram/@donnasaurusrexxx


You know, there are better ways to let a friend know that you missed him while he was on a trip. Maybe something like, “hey, glad you’re back, let’s go get some food,” or something of that nature.

Seems a Bit Mean

Waiting for somebody you’re fond of at the airport oftentimes becomes a little boring, but that boredom is usually alleviated by carrying a sign that makes fun of the person in question. This sign has an oh-so-attractive picture on it that we bet few would even recognize as human if not for the eyes and nose and stuff.

Instagram/@kalechips14


Why she picked that picture will remain a mystery to everybody but her and, we guess, the person that is being depicted in the photo. Hard to miss a sign like that one, even if you’re trying to ignore it.

Earning Brownie Points

If you’re waiting for someone at the airport, it’s for a number of reasons. Maybe you were paid to be there, and every person that comes up to you is just another dollar in the bank. Maybe you’re contractually obligated to be there since the person is a family member with no other way to get home, and you’re doing your familial duty.

Instagram/@crinz_snapz


Or, like this guy, the person you’re waiting for is your favorite of all time, and you just can’t wait to see him or her. Those are the kinds of signs that we love to see.

That’s My Name, Don’t Wear It Out

Sometimes you don’t really need a sign when you’re waiting at the airport since the person getting off the plane already knows who you are. This person, being a mother to her child, likely didn’t need to have a sign, and it’s not like that sign is very helpful to somebody that doesn’t already know her.

Instagram/@greeneyedmamma


Obviously, this mom took the chance to have a joke at her child’s expense, something that many parents delight in doing. Hopefully, she only got one person coming up to her while she was holding this sign.

You Wish!

This here guy is probably sleepwalking while dreaming about a wild fantasy of his.

Twitter/@Courtdawg22


Obviously, he’s a fan of one of the Kardashian women, or maybe he’s referring to Rob. You never know.

Desperate Housewives

One of these desperate housewives is good and ready for her husband to get back home to help her out with their toddler.

Alamy Stock Photo


The other is just ready for a make-out session with her hubby. They obviously don’t have young kids yet.

Warm Home-Welcome for the Veteran

This group awaits the arrival of their friend, Fire Controlman Celina Chavez, during a homecoming celebration at a Naval Base in San Diego. Chavez was returning to San Diego after a six-month deployment.

Alamy Stock Photo


We’re sure that she’ll be touched by her friend’s “sweet” welcoming words and that flattering picture of her they’re holding up high. Celina probably isn’t surprised, and this is just their kind of humor.

A Loving Son

This guy wanted to embarrass his mother and was quite forward about it. He posted, “Picking up my mother from a long hiatus overseas, I thought the best way to show my love was with humiliation.”

Imgur.com/jcsparkels


We can only assume that this sign not only embarrassed his mother but also put a smile on the faces of many people at the airport.

Daddy’s Girl

Our hearts are just gushing from this cute little girl’s sign and her genuine facial expression.

Alamy Stock Photo


She’s clearly not the one who wrote the sign, as she’s very young, but you can tell from the dozens of stickers that she decorated it with all her heart. We’re sure her dad will absolutely love it!

Lost in Translation

Maybe this has been translated from another language, but we don’t get it. Out of all the stars in the sky, how is he supposed to know which one is his?

Instagram/@aishajordan


And about the second part, his home. If he follows a star, shouldn’t the general direction of his home be up? And isn’t that where his plane was? Is she basically telling him to leave?

Thank You for Coming Back

Instead of surprising their mom and his wife, this family decided to update her on the situation at home before getting there. They lived on takeaways for the past week, and there are no clean clothes.

Instagram/@peterlow100x


Now, what this family didn’t take into account is that this woman has just about enough time to change her mind and escape. She is still at the airport and is as close to “abroad” as she will ever be.

We’re Not Exactly Sure…

So, this lady was attempting to be funny; we’re just now sure about her approach… Is she referring to herself…is she seeking smelly fart fetishists?

Imgur.com/ABitTooFishy


Or perhaps she wrote this sign mid-stroke, and now she’s not even sure what happened. We need answers!

New Business in Town

This one is direct and straight to the point. Just go back home. Apparently, anyone can rent one of these signs, and they come in all shapes and sizes.

Instagram/@bridgeluv


Just tell us what size you want, what the sign should say, and most importantly, who is going to hold it. A grandson holding this to greet his grandmother is as painful as it can get.

Never Again

We love it when kids tell us things we already know. And even though dads can sometimes be much more fun than moms, at the end of the day, moms are the winners.

Instagram/@mikegwilly


We couldn’t think of a better airport welcome sign to greet any returning mom. This is pure and unconditional love.

Two Dog Travel

We can excuse someone who is suffering from gas and can understand that sometimes, you just can’t help it. When you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go.

Instagram/@shaleah02


But why was it necessary to bring these two creatures on the journey? The fact that they take up too much space and drool everywhere is enough. We don’t need their gas too.

That Time of Year

When you travel back home for Christmas, and your best friend says he will pick you up from the airport, this is what you should be expecting. Nothing less!

Reddit.com/smacktip


To us, there is nothing wrong with the 100$ suit he has on. We are more interested in what was going on inside the head of the guy sitting a couple of rows behind.

Best Husband Ever

This is the man every woman dreams about. He is the perfect marriage material; he will forever support you and will never pull a face when you travel to Florida for a bachelorette party, however, there is a price to pay.

Instagram/@laurapoz26


Whenever you return from one of these parties, you will find him waiting for you with a great big smile on his face and an impressive sign like this. You’ve been warned.

Short Bald Mexican

This lady chose to scare off any potential good-looking dudette who might find her husband attractive. With this sign, no one will ever come near. Back off, ladies, the man is spoken for.

Instagram/@fit_twigg


Her husband is actually very tall and handsome, just returning from a business trip, and is about to walk out into the arrival lounge dressed in a three-piece suite.

Someone’s Been a Naugty Girl

“Attention, attention calling Courtney Payne, I repeat, calling Courtney Payne to the arrival hall!”

Twitter/@Courtdawg22


“There’s a creepy man in a green elf suit looking for you, and he won’t leave until he has you in his custody. Come spare us!”

Hide Your Sheep!

Sean was surly blushing when he got to the arrival hall but not because he was excited when he saw his best pal waiting for him with a huge welcome sign, but more like the horrendous caption they were holding up for all to see.

Reddit.com/seantron


But hey, what are friends for if not to make the general public think you’re into bestiality?

I’m Not Smiling, Are You Smiling?

Well, this chick is definitely smiling. And we’re kind of creeped out, so we’re just going to catch a cab.

Instagram/@saramcmann


Let’s just back away very slowly…

Pucker Up, Why Don’t You?

We are not sure who is supposed to be more embarrassed here. The guy who prepared this sign or his girlfriend who is about to see it as she’s getting off the plane?

Instagram/@eericaraee


Either way, we suggest this dude keeps his wishes at home and let the young lady decide if she will pucker up for him or not. It’s not for the world to know, especially not after making this sign.

“Aww, C’mon, Mom.”

This mom embarrassed her son throughout the entire train station. She asked a few people to take pictures along the way, too.

Reddit.com/thesircuddles


But did you have to wear the feather boa too, mom?

Never Graduated

Either the dude who prepared this sign never graduated from elementary school, or this must be read with a strong new york accent. Either way, we had to read it a few times before it made us laugh.

Twitter/@isha_varma


This dude’s mother probably found the whole thing very amusing only because she missed her son to bits, but seriously, even we know that AYO is spelled without an A. It’s YO, MA!

Failed

This girlfriend wanted one thing and one thing only from her dorky boyfriend. She asked him to embarrass her when he picked her up from the airport. This was the last thing she had on her mind.

Imgur.com/ ThisSiteIsGoingToBeTheEndOfMySocialLife


All she wanted was for him to make an embarrassing sign or share a funny photo of her. She wasn’t expecting him to dress up as a dinosaur and hold this joke of a sign.

If You Have Something to Say, Say It Now

There can’t be a better way to tell your partner that you know what they have been up to. Instead of losing it on the phone, this guy chose to humiliate her.

Reddit.com/themilkmememan


This is one of those moments we wish we could be a fly on the wall just to see Michelle’s face when she walks into the arrivals lounge, waiting to be greeted by her soon-to-be ex, very satisfied husband.

Musical Cab Seats

We know that this is a band, but we’re still not sure if we would step foot inside that guy’s cab.

Twitter/@JJS_III


He could be a serial killer with great taste in tunes and a nice sense of humor.

The Class-Clown

He may as well be holding a sign that says, “looking for chlamydia.” Or hey, maybe…

Reddit.com/rogre78


Nope, that’s pretty much what it says, dude.

As Good as It Gets

This is probably as good as it gets. If you are planning to return from a trip, this is how you want to be greeted at the airport. This is as good as it gets.

Imgur.com/qEyQ0vG


Having such a beautiful redhead driver waiting for you couldn’t be more comforting, and holding a sign making others think you are an actual celebrity, then in our eyes, you have certainly won the jackpot.

This Super Sweet Husband

His wife thought this was adorable.

Reddit.com/ZombieMozart


So did the group of single 40-year-old divorcees traveling through the airport on their way to an Alaskan cruise.

This Amazing Name that we Hope Is Real

“Gleeballs, paging Gleeballs. Dan Gleeballs.” O-M-G, please let this be his real name.

Imgur.com/BoFqR4U


Poor kid probably had a tough time in high school, though…

Straight to the Point

Who are you, Rebecca, and where are you coming from? Is this girl next to Darth Vader actually Rebecca, or is Rebecca about to come into the arrival lounge, finally figuring out who her father is?

Reddit.com/eldy50


All this and much more, on the next episode (which is going to be far more fascinating and shocking than anything you have ever seen) of Star Wars.

These Super Honest Bros

So, they may have made one little mistake while their friend was out of town. At least they were upfront about the situation.

Imgur.com/6FTRqeo


Let’s just hope that her brother is cool enough with whoever did the knocking up; otherwise, they may be in for some trouble.

Clans and Kilts

This guy took a trip to Scotland and returned to this. Hey, at least his friend made an effort.

Twitter/@DougieMcG


Or maybe it’s his brother, Gavin McGregor.

Secret Service

These roommates decided to dress up and go all out to pick up their buddy. We give them five stars.

Imgur.com/RYJ2G7b


After all, who wouldn’t want to be picked up by the Men in Black? Well, except for little (and big) green space aliens…and all other space aliens.

Awkward Carpools

Ugh, rideshares with strangers can be the worst.

Instagram/@rndm_ctzn


We hope Alice wasn’t too uncomfortable on her way home. At least no one had to sit in the middle seat, though!

Simon Says Buh-Bye

Well, Simon, you honestly should have known better before you bought a selfie stick. Britney, we fully understand your disappointment. See you later, Simon!

Twitter/@julian_wood


Don’t worry; you certainly have the tools to keep yourself occupied.

This Super Pumped Army Wife

This guy was definitely excited to return home to this sight! We don’t blame him; who wouldn’t be?

Imgur.com/LkPSE


A. Neal reporting for booty, sir! Err…miss.

Someone’s Going to Learn Today

Okay, mom, do you like washing dirty underwear? No? Well, uh, time for some lessons in the laundry!

Imgur.com/uGg4coT


It looks like it’s time for a store run, too. Always, always keep backup undies for emergencies, kids.

Smooth Operator

This guy thinks he’s really hot stuff, holding this sign up for his wife. She actually really loved it.

Imgur.com/Blastergv9


Or maybe he’s just trying out a new method of finding women.

It Is Yours!

Here is a creative way to tell your partner (soon-to-be ex-partner) that the baby this young lady is carrying is, in fact, his. Or at least, she wants to believe it is.

Reddit.com/orchid_breeder


Maybe he already knows the baby is his, and he decided to pull a runner and escape the country. In that case, maybe she heard, by chance, that he was coming for a homeland visit and couldn’t miss an opportunity.

Later Gator

Welcome to the Sunshine State, Sarah.

Imgur.com/lordlasagna


We’ve got beautiful beaches, palm trees, and alligators lurking around every corner!

Aye Aye Captain

Not a lot was invested in this airport pickup sign; however, it doesn’t matter as it’s the thought that counts. Or is it only Captain Sneeze Fart that counts?

Instagram/@narcopiggy


Apparently, Jon (that’s the guy’s name) never saw this sign when he walked out of the airport, and the little girl was left standing there all alone. We are pretty sure his wife made him go all the way back in just not to disappoint her again.

This Enormous Head on a Stick

Well, hey, at least there are zero chances that Mokie misses that sign.

Imgur.com/WDNHq


They can also probably repurpose that thing afterward to terrify some children on Halloween.

Thank God

The father, who is not seen in the photo, was gone for five days. Within those five days, his house was out of power for three days, and overall, his two cute daughters really missed him.

Instagram/@makeitposhevents


We hope this guy has returned with duty-free wine and loads of winnings from the casino, so the smiles are not wiped off these faces.

A Blonde Walks Into An Airport…

And gets snapped spectacularly holding this sign the wrong way.

Reddit.com/PotatoMuffinMafia


Somebody grab the sunscreen because this blonde burned herself pretty badly. Ouch!

Now Under CIA Interrogation

It was all fun and games until the feds got involved. Apparently, his friend’s name was Eddie. Oops.

Reddit.com/savbuck


We’re sure they didn’t hold him underground for too long…probably.

Definitely Michael Jordan

Okay, maybe this guy is just waiting for his son, who by the way – is not named Michael Jordan at all.

Imgur.com/u31KW


Or, maybe he wasn’t really waiting for anyone, and he was just hoping to catch the basketball car on his way off of a flight.

This Bittersweet Symphony

Hey, it’s 5 o’clock somewhere, right? Cheers to this guy for having a portable margarita stand!

Reddit.com/rhapsodyinpoo


Except, we just see the mixer; where’s the most important ingredient, bud?

The Inlaws

Picture this: Christmas is around the corner, and your brother and sister-in-law are coming over for the holidays. So, before preparing the fancy holiday dinner, you have got to prepare a welcome sign for the airport.

Instagram/@watson13


And for that, you will use the most embarrassing photos of the two that you can find. Kind of makes you wonder where family values and unconditional love have gone to…

When You Finally Meet Your Online Friend IRL

And he picks you up from the Israeli airport, Natbag, with this sign that just makes you say, “WoW!”

Reddit.com/Zeepie


Enjoy the battle for Azeroth, you two.

This Incredibly Sweet Brother

Tell us how you really feel about your sister Jody.

Twitter/@daltonraywebb


Nah, we’re sure this is just another one of their inside jokes. If you happen to have a brother, we’re sure you can relate!

Aunty M

All you need in life is one loving niece who is prepared to do absolutely anything, so her beloved aunt can say goodbye to her lonely single days.

Instagram/@minnie_justinebotner


Personally, we would have used a better word than CUTE, and for sure we wouldn’t have put the sign in front of the adorable baby (they are known to be great attention stealers). If this finds the cute aunt a partner for life, though, we are all in.

Hugh Jarse? I’m Here for a Hugh Jarse

We wonder if this guy was the butt of a joke or if he knows what he’s doing there.

Reddit.com/DaleDarko23


Well, hopefully, his party showed up either way.

This Intelligent Baby

Oh my god, this baby is a genius! Look, he wrote this sign all on his own! I guess mom is as funny as she is hard to handle.

Twitter/@Cierra_J_Parker


We’re sure that the soldier is glad to be home with Kaden, who potentially has a future in graphic design.

Tom’s Friend Who Wants to Be More

This guy keeps dropping hints, but Tom is either blind to his admirer, or he just keeps putting him in the friend zone on purpose.

Imgur.com/markmyw0rds


Or maybe Tom isn’t interested, buddy.

This Trio of Giddy Military Wives

So glad everyone was prepared! Well, almost everyone. We’re looking at you, Martha in the middle.

Imgur.com/OctopussSevenTwo


But if she didn’t make that sign in advance, where did that shoelace that’s keeping it around her neck come from?

Poor, Poor Mumsy

This woman came home to a loving daughter and a lazy husband. We hear she did a 180 and took another two days’ vacation.

Instagram/@zarasimmons


Maybe it’s time to invest in a Roomba.

No Big Threat

If we know one thing about this friendship, it’s that it’s honest! And honesty is the best policy, even if it can get a bit smelly. What can be better than a two-hour ride with your best friend sitting in a cloud of…gas?

Reddit.com/GeorgieWashington


There is no room for complaining, and London is a place with great public transportation; you can have your choice. Traveling the roads on a bus or holding your breath until you get home.

A Big Thumbs Up

When you have no time for photo taking and no ability for photoshop editing, Marla’s friends will come to the rescue. All you need is some creativity, a piece of cardboard, a black marker, and two ridiculous-looking faces.

Instagram/@emhissong


If we were Marla, we would probably just carry on walking after spotting these two, escaping into the ‘something to declare’ section.

Revenge

So, your best friend has been spending a little too much time with your sister, then he married her, and what do you know, she is now pregnant. This is unforgivable. And when you pick him up from the airport, you are going to give him a piece of your mind and let the whole world know exactly how unforgivable this is.

Imgur.com/WpjQUp7


Luckily enough, revenge will come all coated in sleepless nights and two-year-old tantrums.

This Awesome Bromance

He chose the neon-colored poster board and everything. We admire the kind of friendship these guys have.

Imgur.com/ramblindan2020


But judging by that drawing of a beer mug, it seems like maybe this won’t be the last time this happens.

It’s the Motion of the Ocean

But poor Richard apparently has one little boat. Maybe he got in trouble, and this is his punishment.

Instagram/@sachavdbg


Hey, at least he seems to be taking the whole thing in stride…no matter how little the thing may be.

This Sweet Girlfriend

This girl went to the airport to pick up her boyfriend and their best friend.

Reddit.com/smileynatalie


She didn’t want the friend to feel left out…we hope. Or hey, maybe it’s a poly thing.

These 20-Year-Old Orphans

We hope that they were able to find a family with huge hearts that could raise them as their own.

Instagram/@clarekfield


Poor children, they’re so hungry and cold!

When You’re Waiting for Your Boss

They’re just following orders, man. Their boss can be a real nightmare. Seriously, though…that’s some major commitment.

Facebook/@denverinternationalairport


Here’s to hoping that whoever got off of that plane was dressed like Darth!

In Your Face, ICE!

Although we sincerely hope that this sign was created solely for protest and not because the person who made it was really missing a family member.

Twitter/@Kathy8Perkins


Whatever the reason was, they put a lot of effort into it.

Love on Lockdown

Or, you know, in lock-up. No more ramen noodles for this mom. Yay!

Imgur.com/VTspyvW


On the plus side, mom is probably super buffed up now – you’d better be on your best behavior, kids!

Anna’s Got 99 Problems, and This Guy Is Definitely One of Them

Oh, man, poor Anna. All she wanted was for her next-door neighbor to pick her up from the airport after her 10-hour flight back home.

Reddit.com/GrahamParkerME


Too bad he has a terrible sense of humor.

This Willy Wonka Weirdo

This guy was picking up his buddy, who actually owns a chocolate-making factory. That’s some serious commitment.

Twitter/@DENAirport


Although, it’s also possible they’re headed to a killer party at the club.

Welcome Home

This guy kept himself occupied while his better (or not so better) half was away gallivanting abroad. He even had the time to detail everything he found on her cell phone record and didn’t leave much room for imagination. 

Imgur.com/uXHPLkd


We have a feeling this ex-girlfriend is going to have a lot of time for gallivanting now she is back from holiday.

This Military Wife Who Can Barely Wait

This soldier’s wife has been deployed for a year, and she’s ready to get reacquainted, like – NOW!

Reddit.com/turbobacon30096


It’s pretty safe to say that he’s more than willing, too.

That Sign Is a Ride

Even after you’ve stepped off the plane, you’re going to need another vacation if this lady is waiting for you with a sign. First, you get a happy birthday message, and then you get a stiff reminder that time is unstoppable, and eventually, you’ll end up in a senior home with no control of your bowels. Fun!

Instagram/@hmcritelli


After that, it’s a short message that the dog got at the birthday cake before anybody else could, and finally, a real welcome message. Yes, hold on tight because you’re about to go spinning.

Not Even a Shot Glass?

It might not be as common nowadays, but back in years past, you would bring souvenirs to people back home when you’ve been abroad for a while. Generally, these are simple, small items like cups, shirts, key chains, or other small bits and bobs.

Instagram/@officially_karinana


It has fallen out as a common practice these days, but you can still hope, right? Just a little bit of something makes it all worth it and is a good reminder that at least somebody got to go and have an adventure. A local treat is a great choice.

Sorry, I Don’t Know Them

This is the kind of sign that you see someone holding, and you think, “glad I’m not the one they’re looking for.” Of course, if you are the person these two are looking for, you probably only have yourself to blame. You have to nip that kind of behavior in the bud, or it’s just going to continue.

Instagram/@fatgayandbroke


Burning the sign is the best option here. Make sure they’re watching you do it, too. Put it in a metal trash can, douse it in gasoline, and toss a match. If other stuff catches fire, well, that’s the price they’ll pay for this kind of thing.

A Couple of Winners Right Here

In this picture, we see a pair of signs that…well, the one on the left is a little clever, even if it does have that kind of almost-humor that is so popular on the internet these days. Just mentioning something that COULD be funny doesn’t actually MAKE it funny. As for the guy on the right, well, at least he has a sign.

Instagram/@tiararose_fotini


You know, not every sign has to make people laugh. It could just say, “welcome home, we missed you,” or something like that. Pointing out that you ran out of ideas before you even started isn’t going to earn you any sympathy points.

We’re Going on “Maury” Tomorrow

If you’re tired of having to pick your parents up from the airport, then this is the tactic to use. But let’s be real for a moment here. If somebody saw that sign, they would assume it was a joke, right? There’s no person with such low emotional intelligence that they would actually write that on a sign. We hope.

Instagram/@bradtegeler


Sure, it’s clever, but we don’t think it’s going to fool too many people. Then again, there are quite a number of fools out there, so who knows? At the very least, the bright colors are hard to miss.

Either Party Could Have Written That

First off, both of these kids look like they’re doing fine, so good job, Dad. Second, this kind of “how could you, Mom” energy could have come from either the kids or the dad, though we think the colors have a distinctly kid-like quality to them.

Instagram/@fxdxt_liljay_ninjaaaaah


On the other hand, the outlines of the letters are a little too clean and too crisp, so dollars to donuts, this art project was a community affair. They did all that work, and they didn’t leave space for the S at the end of “days,” though. You were so close to perfection.

Such a Flattering Image

It seems to be an unspoken rule that you have to pick the weirdest and least-attractive picture to use for an airport pick-up sign. At least, if you’re there to pick up a friend of the same age, anyway. What a snapshot. She looks like she just took a hit of the sourest lemon to ever be produced, or maybe she ate one of those ghost pepper chips. Or both.

Instagram/@fabulous3flores


This might seem mean to Crystal, but you needn’t worry – Crystal got Kristina right back the next time she went on a trip. It wasn’t as mean, but it still counts.

Just a Purely Good Moment

Many of the signs on this list are the kind that makes fun of someone or will get a chuckle out of you, but this one is just a sweet image. There’s a lot of bad stuff in the world, you know, but not everything is gloom and doom and bad forecasts.

Even now, you can still have two people just being cute together. No jokes or deprecation, even if it is in love. It’s just a bright green sign with a couple of cute little pears and a bunch of hearts, and everybody is smiling for the camera.

The Microwave Broke

Leaving the kids alone for a long time is a big step in their lives. They get to have a little taste of independence, they get to find out what it’s like taking care of themselves, and the parents get to have some time to themselves. This kid – there are probably more based on the sign – is really glad to see her parents get back, mostly because, apparently, making dinner every night takes a lot of work.

Maybe they did what my parents did and just left six big pans of KFC chicken in the freezer for us. That’s not a joke; that happened.

A Young Daddy’s Girl

Is there anything purer and more heartwarming than the love between a daughter and her father? It fills the cold, angry cockles of your soul. The story goes that this particular daddy had been on a trip – what kind of trip is not confirmed – for a long three weeks.

While we see two pictures of Dad with a big smile, the following image on this Instagram post has him clearly worn out from work and travel, but he’s still picking up his little girl. The little girl gives her biggest smile to the camera.

We’re Lost, Too

At first, this just looks like an airport sign that has a little bit more detail added to it, but check out those bullet points. The very first one just says, “The Twerkulator.” We have no idea what that could possibly mean, and we’re not sure we want to find out.

The bullet point right under that one says, in all caps, “WORLD.” There are two more bullet points, but we bet that both of them are inside jokes as well, unless these two just really like going to the beach. And more power to them.

Hold on, What’s That Fourth One?

It’s small, it’s simple, it’s well-decorated, and it contains the words “Life Pickler,” so that’s pretty much all you need for an airport sign. But, and this might be a small thing, what in the world does “Life Pickler” mean? It may be horrifyingly literal, or it might be an inside joke that we just don’t understand.

We do really hope it’s the latter. Other than that stand-out element, there isn’t a whole lot to talk about here; it’s just a fun sign that someone made for her friend. It does have the “give alcohol” joke that has been proven to make some people giggle throughout the article.

So…Who Is It for, Then?

We almost wonder if this lady was just standing in the airport waiting for someone to come up to her that wasn’t a missionary. Our best guess as to what was actually the thought process behind this sign is that the lady in question WAS a missionary, but now she’s all done and returned home, and the sign is commemorating that fact.

Look, we’re not saying it’s a great sign, but that’s our best guess. We can’t really come up with any other ideas, so we’re going to go with that one.

We Might Be Missing Something

Okay, we looked it up, and “Shen So Su” means “Spirit of healing and love,” apparently. It’s a crystal meditation experience, so, you know…fake. But this sign is still very real, and it’s plenty of fun for both of the ladies involved, even if they likely credit positive energies or something like that to their good emotions.

Hey, at least she has a chariot. It for SURE isn’t an old Mercury Tracer that has more rust than paint remaining and sounds like an old hog when you start it. We’re certain.

Back to the Basics

A lot of the signs on this list are quite…extra? They have a lot of detail, and a lot of thought went into them, and they’re something to remember for a long time. This sign isn’t like those other signs. This one was created with thirty minutes to go before the pick-up person had to go to the airport.

As far as we can tell, there isn’t anything more to it other than a single piece of construction paper and an old marker. But hey, sometimes that’s all you need, right? You just need to know where to go – you don’t need a whole song and dance.

We’d Be Excited About an Angel, Too

In case it’s a little hard to read, here is what the sign says: “Angel, Do you want to build a sandman?” We can all recognize that as an adaptation of the classic line from the movie “Frozen,” but making a sandman is decidedly harder to put together than a snowman. With enough time, however, you can do it.

There’s no evidence about who Angel is – it could be a friend, a cousin, an aunt, or a grandmother. Maybe even a sister. It could be a pet, for all we know. Well, whoever it is, this kid is all about the arrival.

Better to Have a Sign

The reason people hold a sign to meet someone at the airport is, usually, because they don’t know the person they are there to meet. You see a sign with your name, and you go to that person. That means that a lot of the signs on this list aren’t really necessary, but there’s always a chance of some targeted amnesia.

Maybe the person getting off the plane has forgotten everything about his or her previous life! What to do in that case? The answer is simple – make a sign with your loved one’s name on it. Foolproof.

The Perfect Choice

At first glance it might seem like this sign isn’t going to be very helpful. After all, it just looks like something that an unknown creature that just so happens to have big feet might shout out in a moment of rage. However, it makes a little more sense once you find out that the person these two are meeting actually has the last name Blarg. Yes.

That’s what we are led to believe, anyway. With such a unique name to look for, these two realized they could dress up in costumes, and bigfoot is a choice that can’t be beaten.

Too Complicated

Now, this is quite the display. It seems that the person behind this sign wasn’t willing to stop with just one strange addition, or even two, or even three, but there had to be a big handful of weird things to greet friend Amy, such as a creepy face, a kiwi with scissors, half of a horse that contains words too small for us to read, and reaffirmation of Amy because she’s a star.

However, we can take from the fact that this was made on a big sketch pad that the person responsible is an artist. That should pretty much clear it up for everybody.

Payback Is a Big Sign

The story behind this one goes that a long time ago, Allison forgot to deliver the passport of her friend, Casey, who had to give up her trip as a result. This was Allison’s punishment. When needing to come and pick Allison up, Casey served her revenge. Apparently, Casey took quite a long time rolling through the flight arrival lanes. Maybe next time don’t forget her passport, ALLISON.

Otherwise, you might just have to sit in this van as it rolls down one street after the next, going as slow as legally possible, and everyone that knows you will probably see it. Such a shame.
