I see it's been a while since this topic was discussed, but I just want to ask—has anyone recently noticed better exchange rates at airport kiosks versus local banks? I always hear that airports have the worst rates, but on my last trip, the difference wasn’t as bad as expected. Maybe things have changed? Would love to hear what others have experienced lately.

I've found that using online exchange platforms can often give better rates than airport kiosks or banks. I’ve personally used ownersclubfx.com, and their rates were way more competitive than what I was getting locally. Plus, the process was quick, and they were pretty transparent about fees. If I need to exchange a decent sum, I always compare rates there first to make sure I'm not losing money unnecessarily.
