Note: I will be mostly using Georgian Lari (GEL) when talking about amounts.
1 GEL≈ 1 AED; 1 USD ≈ 2 GEL
Everything went smooth in Tbilisi Airport. Customs and baggage collection was easy as well and there is no security check when leaving the airport. As for those people who are like me that require a sim card when traveling, I found two kiosks near the airport exit. The one I went for was Beeline; the number itself costs 20 GEL and if you want data for internet use it costs an extra 7 GEL for 3GB data allowance which is more than enough for a short trip. They only require to look at your passport to give you the number.
It has come to my attention that it costs less if you purchase it from the stores and shops outside the airport; I read someplace that it is 2 GEL per number but I can't guarantee the price. The speed of the internet was not very efficient (and for those who care, SnapChat was blocked).
Taxis are found right at the exit of the airport and it costed about 40 GEL to the Marriott hotel which is about a 20-minute drive.
A review on the Marriott Hotel will be in a different post.
Until next time.
Happy traveling!
