⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Ignore touts inside arrivals offering private taxis or transfers at inflated prices; use the official rank or a pre-booked driver meeting you in Arrivals.
  • Muttaş bus is paid on board by card; do not buy tickets from anyone approaching you outside the bus platform asking for cash.
  • Airport taxi fares are per car and set at the rank, but not always metered; confirm the total price before loading any bags.
  • Do not board unmarked minibuses or shuttle drivers who approach you outside; they may not hold official DLM operating permits.
