⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Use the official taxi rank outside arrivals and check the meter is running; unofficial touts inside the terminal often quote inflated fixed prices.
  • Agree the fare before accepting a private taxi without a meter; the price is per car, not per person.
  • Some drivers may claim the airport bus is not running for international flights; check at the Muttaş/Havaş counter or platform yourself.
  • For pre-booked transfers, pay only the price confirmed online; some 'helpers' at arrivals pose as your driver and ask for extra cash.
