Unofficial Taxi Drivers: Unlicensed drivers may approach you inside the terminal offering rides at inflated prices or take longer routes. Avoid by only using official orange airport taxis from the designated taxi stand outside arrivals, or pre-book transportation through your hotel or reputable companies.

Currency Exchange Scams: Airport exchange counters and individuals may offer poor exchange rates or use confusing calculations. Avoid by using ATMs for better rates, exchanging only small amounts at the airport if needed, or paying with credit cards when possible. Always verify the rate before completing any exchange.

Fake Tourist Information Desks: Unofficial 'helpers' or fake information booths may direct you to overpriced tours or transportation. Avoid by only using official airport information desks, ignoring unsolicited offers of help with luggage or directions, and researching transportation options before arrival.
