New Notice at IGI Airport New Delhi?

Posted on June 8, 2010
Beware of Touts IGI New Delhi
A Valuable Advise

I think this notice is new at the Delhi Airport. Not that I go to airports quite frequently but I cannot recollect seeing this before. Maybe it is because of the forthcoming commonwealth games that they have put it?

The best piece of an airport scenario (though this was at Chennai airport but I can assure you Delhi airport would be no different) by a foreigner that I have read is at Indiamike-

Imagine Michael Jackson arriving at an airport with thousands of screaming fans being held back by ropes, all shouting things, all trying to touch him, add to that the heat, humidity, smell, and the fact that it was about 3 in the morning, that’s what was outside.

    haha i can relate to the Michael Jackson scenario outside the airport. the scene at the arrival and departure areas of our airports used to be like that, too. until the airport authorities imposed a fee for every person entering the “greeters” area.:p

    This may have been put in view of the forthcoming Commonwealth Games.

    I recall reading online yesterday that the security at the IGI Airport has been revamped. I heard there will be new services like the Delhi Metro’s airport link will connect to the IGI airport..any idea if it is true?

    This is pure commercial display… These so called cabs are authorized because they pay close to 1000 rs a day to airport per cab… To recover this, authorized cabs will have to charge Rs 100-200 more to passengers…

    Unauthorized cabs are cabs which come to airport to drop off passengers and attempt to get some customers for return journey..

    There’s no such thing as safe cab. Similar boards can be seen in Bangalore airport as well…
