happen although it's more of a watch and see what bag the tourist is looking at, particular mums/wives, then before husband/partner can get bag the porter jumps in. Be strong if you don't want help and say no thankyou we can manage or make the porters day and say yes, 2,000 rupiah per bag, at the end give a tip. Signs are up at the airport on how much to pay porters. Tip will depend if you get taken right through to your car or to just the declare counter!
