Welcome to Scam City Airport, Population: You
Ah, airports! Those magical portals where dreams of adventure meet overpriced coffee, endless lines, and scams so sneaky they’d make a pickpocket blush.
Whether it’s the “friendly” stranger offering help or the taxi driver with a PhD in overcharging, airports are breeding grounds for travel regrets.
Imagine, you’ve just staggered off a 14-hour flight, fueled by stale coffee and bad decisions.
Enter the grinning stranger: “Taxi, sir? Best price!” A demolition derby car awaits, and so does the demise of your wallet.
Fake baggage handlers snatch your suitcase, dodgy taxis charge Limo prices, and “official” exchanges hand you Monopoly money.
Stick with me, and you’ll dodge these traps, or at least avoid becoming a travel forum punchline.
