Avoid This Airport In India 🇮🇳

  • I will show you my honest first impressions of India. From Sri Lanka I booked a flight to Chennai in India's South (Tamil Nadu area). I have never struggled so much when arriving to any other countries so far. First I did not get any sim-card for my phone, so I could not search a hotel. Furthermore the ATMs also did not work the way I expected. On the other hand I had so much fun with local Indian people that I randomly met on the streets or in the metro. And of course I had to try delicious Indian street food. I still did not stop eating, even though after 5 hours I still had my suitcase with me and I still couldn't get a sim-card. Watch this video until the end if you've never been to India. and you'll know how India is like and how you can prepare yourself in a better way than I did.
    And why should you avoid Chennai Airport? In my opinion, that's a bad choice to enter India. You will need a Sim-Card and there's NO SIMCARD AT THE AIRPORT!!! That's a big joke for any tourists who want to spend their holidays in India. Why is it possible that Delhi and Mumbai Airport have Simcard Stands that you see immediately after leaving the airplane? With plenty of foreigners buying a Simcard?! I don't know why they don't sell SimCards in Chennai, but if it doesn't matter to you to land in Chennai, Mumbai or Delhi, then don't choose Chennai. Also in the city the 2 big Simcard Companies don't sell you any Simcards, because you need a permanent residency and some Indian documents which foreigners just don't have. So I had to 'bribe' some locals to arrange an Airtel Simcard for me. Great, right? No, I don't like to break the rules, but if you have less choices, you actively try to find a solution.

    What I would have changed if I knew it before:
    Bringing a foreign currency to exchange against Indian Rupees in the exchange office or probably withdrawing less money at the ATM. Booking a hotel in advance via Booking or Agoda is actually not an option for me. It might still be fully booked when I arrive, the Wifi is bad or not existent or the traffic on the street is loud. So I would have most likely gone to a nearby place to eat and using my hotspot to make sure in which area I wanted to find a hotel. Then taking the metro or local taxi and going to that area and on the way trying to buy a local sim-card from a small seller who sits under an umbrella beside the street (in case he doesn't ask for the same requirements like the bigger stores). But travelling also means learning. And without these issues I maybe wouldn't be aware of that thing like that can happen in other countries too. So now I can prepare myself better before / while I travel to other countries. And the bonus: I was able to film a long vlog, showing you my real first experiences of India. I had so much fun, even though I got a bit exhausted from walking, waiting and not to know what would happen next. Eventually I got a sim-card one day later and my hotel is pretty nice too.

      Perhaps it would be better for you to do some research on the internet before flying to India, especially to the southern part. I was also surprised and wondered why there were no SIM cards sold at Indian airports, whereas in some vlogs I watched, there were many available. It turns out you flew directly to the southern part of India, where the conditions are slightly different from the more modern and advanced northern part, where it's easier to get facilities. But that's how traveling goes, sometimes it doesn't meet expectations. The most important thing is always to carry cash, no matter what the conditions are. hope you enjoy your trip in India.

    Try Adayar ananda bhavan for masala dosa, pongal, lunch thali etc. The ATMs dont say that the maximum amount is Rs. 10000, instead it just says enter smaller amount. Strange that the banks wont fix it, as it is a headache for customers. Getting a SIM should be as easy as other counties, India needs to improve. It is good that you stayed positive when things were difficult, which actually helped you find that hotel.

    This is why I love German travellers; you guys, at least outwardly, are so calm and roll with the punches. At 1:19:50 when you ask "what can I do next time better?" is something that, as a South Asian who came of age in Canada, studied in the UK, and travels independently a lot, I *never* hear from North American and English travellers. There is a lot a host country should do to make the experience of tourists easier (India's demonetization and SIM card nuisances, which you've come across are serious issues), but tourists themselves can have a better time by adapting to different circumstances. Hope your trip got better; cheers!

    Travel tip: Book your room before leaving so you have a hotel to go to from the airport/ Then if no SIM card is available at the airport take a pre-paid taxi to your hotel and use the hotel's internet to find a Airtel SIM shop on google map and look at the reviews for one with good service. Note not all Airtel shops do tourist SIMs. Also you might need a reference so ask the Hotel for a name and phone number. That's what I had to do and a guy from the hotel went with me. Yes it's a pain getting a SIM in India, E=Sim is great if your phone supports it.

    After taking a long journey by the plan for many hours but you have to still figure out the new country that u have never visit before while bringing a big suitcase when u're really tired 😓🙈😅Perhaps it would be better for you to do some research on the internet or seeking informations in the wide ranges in any articles or asking for information to your friends who had been to South India before flying to India, especially to the southern part. I was also surprised and wondered why there were no SIM cards sold at Indian airports, whereas in some vlogs I watched, there were many available. It turns out you flew directly to the southern part of India, where the conditions are slightly different from the more modern and advanced northern part, where it's easier to get facilities. But that's how traveling goes, sometimes it doesn't meet expectations. The most important thing is always to carry cash, no matter what the conditions are. hope you enjoy your trip in India.

      I have experienced it too, when I was in Makassar. Someone hit me with a motorcycle from the side when I was crossing the street. I was also riding a scooter at that time. I thought I would end up in the hospital because my shoes and jeans were torn, and my knees were bleeding from being dragged on the asphalt 😰, but I was lucky, everything was fine 😌 yeah you know that, the traffic is in Makassar is more crazy than in Bali🤯

    Bro how come you ate the grapes without washing 😢! I remember when I was small I took one grape from a street seller and it lead to food poisoning, (still in my core memory) from that day onwards my parents were very strict about washing grapes before eating because a lot of pesticides is used to grow them. Please don't upset your stomach, its India, whatever you eat, you have to eat with caution.

    I have travelled to a lot of countries, as I land there are no network or you dont have cash when you land. The point is to FOCUS on what you need......you dont need a zim card or cash. You need to find the safest and fastest way to go to your hotel..after a rest and food, everything else can be figured out.
    Get a wifi hotspot and book an uber, and get to the hotel.

    I have traveled to many parts of India, but unfortunately, I had the worst experience with rickshaws in Chennai. They always overcharge. For example, Uber showed a fare of 350, but a local rickshaw charged me 600. I could have taken the Uber, but the wait time was too long. I have some of the nicest friends in Chennai, and everything else is great except for the rickshaw drivers.

    You keeps asking for Zim cards and then talks alot of rubbish confusing people that hardly speak any English. Even asking for the ATM at the counter confused them then wonder why they dont respond.
    I dont think India is complicated. I think you need to do some research before you visit a country. Why make such a fuss about getting a sim card from Jio? After all you need internet to book a hotel.
    I have travelled in Asia without speaking the language and never had problems like you did.
