Unlicensed Taxi Drivers: Unofficial taxi drivers may approach you inside the terminal or just outside, offering rides at seemingly good rates but then charging inflated prices without using a meter. Avoid by using only official taxi ranks outside the arrivals area, pre-booking through reputable companies, or using ride-hailing apps. Look for taxis with company logos and meters.

Currency Exchange Scams: Airport currency exchange counters and ATMs in the arrivals area may offer very poor exchange rates with high commissions, sometimes advertising 'no commission' but hiding fees in unfavorable rates. Avoid by withdrawing cash from city ATMs instead, using your credit/debit card for payments when possible, or exchanging only small amounts at the airport for immediate needs.

Overpriced 'Official' Transport Desks: Some desks in the arrivals hall may present themselves as official airport transport services but charge premium prices for standard taxi or shuttle services. Avoid by walking past these desks to the official taxi rank outside, using the legitimate airport shuttle services, or booking transportation through verified providers before arrival. Check current transport options in booking widgets for legitimate services.
