Bhopal Airport Opens Exchange Counters

26 Nov 2024 CW Team

Bhopal airport has enhanced its passenger amenities with the inauguration of new money exchange counters on Friday. The facility was inaugurated by Airport Director Ramjee Awasthi, marking a significant upgrade in services for both outbound and inbound international passengers.

Positioned strategically at the Departure and Arrival sections of the airport, the counters offer convenience for travellers. Outbound passengers can secure foreign currency before their journey, while inbound passengers have an immediate option to exchange currency upon arrival. Currently, the counters facilitate the exchange of widely used currencies, including the US Dollar, Euro, Dirham, and Thai Baht.

To further improve passenger experience, the service will soon include Multi-Currency Prepaid Cards. These cards provide a secure and convenient digital travel solution, reducing the need for carrying physical currency. Additionally, Electronic Data Capture (EDC) machines are set to be installed at the counters, enabling swift and hassle-free card-based transactions.

The initiative is part of Bhopal airport's efforts to cater to the growing demand for international travel amenities. By ensuring easy access to foreign exchange and offering digital solutions, the airport is aligning itself with global standards of convenience and efficiency.

This development underscores Bhopal airport’s commitment to improving passenger services, especially for those with international connections. The addition of these facilities not only simplifies currency exchange processes but also enhances the overall travel experience, ensuring passengers start or end their journey on a smooth note.
