Ordered a ride via rideshare app and got picked up at the airport drop off zone.
As soon as I got in, a security guard working for the airport started tapping on the window and kicked us out of the ride share and proceeded to tell me I had to get a taxi from inside the airport. When I questioned him why: he could not give me a reason and got angry when I started walking off to the main road with my luggage…
The prices for taxis at the airport were 250-300 baht more than the ride share price to go to my destination.
Do not get scammed by the airport security and taxi companies at Phuket airport. They are working together.
Walk out to the main road and order a cab there.
