everyone else in Indonesia is scamming because that is simply not true.
I am saying that the taxis are not a scam, simply a fixed price service that includes a surcharge they have to pay to airport management for exclusive rights to operate their service and that is the reason that they are slightly more expensive than any other taxi company, and unlike you and other drama queens I get on with getting my taxi from the desk without paying any fancy stupid prices, I have not paid any more than RP 80000 to my hotel, and that is at arrival times anywhere from midday to midnight, and a bluebird back to the airport costs between RP 67000 and RP 73000.
No idea who this "new TA friend" is or where they are supposed to be from or is this just another of your imaginings?
