They are perfectly safe - you should have no problem. No haggling involved - they are metered taxis . . .
I second what tedkarma said - the metered taxis are easy, safe and fine to use. Ignore the touts inside and outside the terminal, and walk to the taxi stand in the parking lot just in front of the terminal.
