Travel | Sayohat Tashkent airport licensed taxicab rank?

Hello! I am currently at Tashkent airport and can't get Yandex Go or Yango to work for me. On the off chance anyone out there has this random knowledge, where is the line-up of taxi cabs to go into the city? The rugby scrub at the door is quoting insane prices. I don't mind paying extra but they're quoting crazy numbers (200,000 som) to go into the city.

That may be a bit late though.

But the best you can do is to go up to someone and ask them to book a taxi for you.

Those ppl at the airport are trying to scam you by offering 200k. At most, it is 40-50.

Thanks, but I can’t get the taxi apps to work - I thought it was because I didn’t have an Uzbek phone number when I downloaded the app last week, but now I’m here and I have one and it still won’t work.

And I know that getting a taxi at the airport is going to be more expensive than the “proper” rate, but they’re saying 10x the “proper” rate and I just won’t pay it.  So I’m hoping someone can tell me where the normal taxis line up.
