long ago in the mid '60's my first 'real' employment was at an int'l currency window in a downtown Chicago bank.
so, I'm not ignorant of foreign currency transfer.

the thing about the airport, just a one time deal.. payment for the taxi, as in Thailand, as in bahts,
the convenience is worth the few$ cost.

my usual method is still the ATM, but the tsf cost can be 4- 6% or so. I only carry few US/e$.
the savvy taxi drivers in the Balkans were most happy exchangers.
long ago, in Russia & Ukraine, the places I stayed at were most insistent.

hard currency is fluid no matter where the world.. what $ I spend probably repatriated to W.Europe or Miami.
