Common Scams to Avoid

Unlicensed Taxi Touts: Individuals may approach you inside the terminal offering taxi services at 'special rates.' These are not legitimate taxi operators. Avoid by only using taxis from the official rank outside the terminal or pre-booking through authorized services via the airport's official channels.

Fake Shuttle Services: Scammers may pose as hotel shuttle drivers or airport transfer services, claiming your pre-booked ride 'cancelled' and offering their service instead. Avoid by confirming your booking details directly with your hotel or transfer company, and never follow someone who approaches you unsolicited claiming to be your driver.

Overcharging on SkyBus: While SkyBus itself is legitimate, individuals may pose as ticket sellers offering 'discounted' tickets that are either invalid or overpriced. Avoid by only purchasing SkyBus tickets from official counters inside the terminal, the official SkyBus website, or the official SkyBus app - never from individuals approaching you.
