  • Know how to pay: Understand how to pay before you go to the airport. Increased number of airports no longer allow you to pay on the site, instead of online or by phone within the next 24 hours. To avoid the fine, set a reminder to do so.
  • Keep your farewells short: Do not spend a long time by saying your farewells – otherwise they will be expensive if you exceed the time limit.
  • Check your taxi fee includes quit fee: If you make a taxi reservation to take you to the airport, check where it has left you and whether the fee quoted contains the fee of the airport.
  • Never leave on a road around the airport: Airports, non -stop regions, they carefully force, so don’t be attractive to save money by leaving a road in the environment. Instead, use the special release area or another parking lot.
