Common Scams to Avoid

Unofficial Taxi Drivers: Unlicensed drivers may approach you inside the terminal or just outside, offering rides at 'special rates.' They often charge inflated prices or take longer routes. AVOID: Only use official taxi ranks outside the terminal or pre-book through the Rhônexpress shuttle or verified ride-hailing apps. Official taxis have meters and proper identification.

Fake 'Airport Staff' Assistance: Individuals wearing unofficial vests or badges may offer to help with luggage or directions, then demand payment. Some may try to direct you to unofficial transport services. AVOID: Politely decline unsolicited help. Genuine airport staff won't demand tips. Use official information desks for assistance.

Overpriced Currency Exchange: Airport exchange bureaus often have poor rates and high commission fees compared to city ATMs or banks. Some advertise 'no commission' but hide fees in unfavorable exchange rates. AVOID: Withdraw small amounts from airport ATMs for immediate needs, then use city center banks or ATMs for better rates. Check current rates before exchanging.
