Mumbai: It seems various groups of people are bent on making your flying experience in and out of Mumbai a nightmare just so that they can make a quick buck. First, there were the touts at T2, who were making passengers shell out $20 (nearly Rs 1,300) for using a trolley and then there were the auto drivers who were charging Rs 50-Rs 100 extra as an ‘entry fee’ for the international terminal.
Now, it has emerged that the trolley tout mafia has been operational at the domestic airport as well, albeit in a different avatar. Instead of hiding trolleys, as the touts at T2 did, their counterparts at the domestic airport’s departure section target unsuspecting passengers who get off from cars and tell them that it is mandatory to use their services to get a trolley and a drop from them to the departure gate barely a minute away.
