• Which LAX Airport Currency Exchange Has Best Rate?

    Posted by Steven on July 2, 2024 at 5:47 am

    Hey everyone,

    Just landed at LAX and realizing I need to exchange some currency.

    I’ve heard horror stories about LAX airport currency exchange rates being terrible.

    Does anyone have any tips on how to avoid getting ripped off when doing money exchange?

    I saw there’s a currency exchange place called ICE, but is that my only option?

    Hoping to avoid those high airport fees!

    What currency are you converting?

    You will get the best rate from an ATM typically.

    Just make sure your bank doesn’t charge any forex fees.

    You can also calculate how much you are getting ripped off by checking the airport rate vs the Google rate.

    Honestly, most forex places don’t rip you off that much, maybe like 5%.
