Ludwig's WRAP-UP
The phrase "upon arrival with" is a grammatically sound prepositional phrase used to indicate that something happens at the moment of arrival, specifically in conjunction with the presence of someone or something. As Ludwig AI confirms, it is acceptable in written English, though not exceedingly common. While it conveys a sense of timing and association, writers should be mindful of its formality and avoid its misuse in scenarios where 'with' is not integral to the arrival. Alternatives such as "immediately after arriving with" or "when they arrived with" may be more suitable depending on context.
