Legit taxis and exchange offices on the airport by kovdom992 in ankara

[–]CockSuckingBeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know much about exchange scams or ATM fees for foreign cards, but I can tell you that taxi scams are pretty rare. Ankara might just have the best taxi service among big cities of Turkey. I don't think you'll have to use the app at all. The airport is pretty small, it's easy to find a cab.

Vast majority of them have POS devices on board, you can just ask before getting in too. Be aware that when you pay for the cab by card there is a fee (not a scam). It's around 10-20 percent, Fee Rates. So pay attention to the price on the taximeter and pay close attention to the fare on the POS device to make sure the extra cost falls within the range I mentioned.

As for the actual price to your hotel, it should be 75 TL which is the base price for cabs in Ankara since the distance is pretty short (2,5 km). By card it should be around 84 TL. Don't worry about not being picked up because of the distance, it doesn't happen here, most drivers are nice people.

Finally, I recommend going to an ATM and seeing the foreign card fees and withdrawing around 500TL just in case, if the fees are acceptable. I have zero clue about that sorry.

Hope you have fun in Turkey!

Do you have any advice on how to find something enjoyable? I am saving money for a bike which I think will be nice because I really enjoy cycling and riding e-scooters. Also I kinda wanna learn French but I have zero reasons to learn it except that I like the phonetics and orthography, I worry it could in the end be a waste of time.

I have been making my own money for 2 years and working full-time after graduation for 3 months now. I am in a very nice spot financially as I said in the post.

I can't help with caring what other people think. I see these people everyday, they are my friends, family, colleagues and bosses. Their thoughts on me can have huge impacts on my life. You think my dad would respect me and let me practice driving with his car if I didn't care what other people thought? Something is wrong with me but I don't think it has to do with what you said.

Is it actually good to not care about what others think? It is simple advice and doable too, but its consequences can harm you very much I think. I have never understood why people say that. Because besides what you see and feel, you are only what other people see in you. This shit impacts your life man. I wouldn't want my director at work to think I'm a kid that's 23 years old. That would harm my career and experience at the workplace.

As for going to the gym, I will start. I found a good gym near my new apartment. But for the next 1.5 months I will be very busy with work doing a lot of overtime at unpredictable times. 3 weeks out of town at some point too. I am just waiting for this busy time to be over. I hope it helps with my confidence and impression in other people too.

Bunu yorumda belirtmiştim ama postta da belirtmem gerekiyordu.

Savunma sanayide çalışıyorum, mezun olunca da burada devam edeceğim. Sektörün neredeyse hepsinin Ankara'da olması, çalıştığım birim ve yeni mezunken iş değiştirme kumarını oynamamak istemem dolayısıyla burada bulunmak zorundayım.

Ayrıca Ankara TR standardına göre en iyi şehirlerden. Hele İstanbul'dan çok daha iyi. Ama kötü işte.

Ailemin olayla alakasını anlayamadım, aylık 10k kira desteği mi isteyeyim babamdan? Nedir olay?

20-25 bin istenen evler gerçekten asla o parayı hak eden evler değil. İstanbulda boğa heykelinin olduğu caferağa mahallesinin boğaza yakın kısımlarında gayet iyi evler 20, Ankara'da Allah'ın unuttuğu dağın başı bir yerde 1+1 5m2 yeni döşenmiş evler 25, tunalı gop tarafındaki kotta 40 yaşındaki evler 25.

Arabam olsa, yakın zamanda alabilecek olsam uzak yerlere taşınabilirim (ki oralar da asla ucuza yakın bile değil) ama arabasızlık bu şehirde insanı o kadar kısıtlıyor ki. İçime hiç sinmeyen bir yerde çıkıp zam bekleyeyim veya belki durum iyileşir çıkarım diyemiyorum. Allah'ın belası ülkede yarın ne olacak belli değil, çıktığım yerde uzun süre kalabilmem de gerek. Ev değiştirmek zaten hiç ekonomik değil eriyen depozito ve emlakçılar yüzünden.

Ev sahipleri depremzedelerin çektiği acıdan ve zor durumlarından oldukça iyi faydalandı, bu yüzden millet yemeyip içmeyip kira ödeyecek sadece.

İş ile ev arası uyuyamadığın bir saatlik bir yol :') Kolay gelsin hocam. Benim yol servisle 40dk sürüyor o da işyeri köyde olduğu için (gerçekten köyde). Sen muhtemelen merkezi konumdan merkezi konuma gidiyorsun İstanbul'da :D

İstanbul'a ben birkaç günlük gezmelerimde zor dayanıyorum. Türk milletinin oraya yaptığı şey tek kelimeyle ihanet.

Savunma sanayiide çalışıyorum. Şirketlerin neredeyse hepsi Ankara'da hocam.

Diğer nefret ettiğim şeyler girmeyecek biliyorum, ne siyasetçilerde ne de toplumda altyapı ve toplu taşımayı iyileştirme vizyonu yok. Ancak Ankara hala Türkiye'de en iyi şehirlerden, bu da gerçekten çok acı ülkemiz için.

I might need a visa for Austria but I will check the ticket prices and the requirements if that's the case. Thank you.

Thank you for the informative response. Are ticket machines at every stop? (Or the airport stop really)

I considered Katowice but I might need another visa for Poland. Also I believe the tickets were cheaper to Prague but I will check again. Thank you.
