What helped

Landing around 10 tonight. Is it easy to get the metro card at the airport that late, or should I just sort it in the morning?

At the small food stalls — is it cash, QR or card usually? Trying to figure out how much cash to pull out.

Nothing dramatic, just agree the taxi price before you get in. We didn't once and it was roughly triple the normal fare.
