Taxi Cab Price per Mile
Cab price per mileWe charge $2.80 a mile. The tariff applies to a client requesting an instant delivery solution. However, any client who is pro-active enough to make a minimum of 3 hour reservation for a downtown or airfield pick-up will be eligible for a 15% off the $2.80 per m per metre price.
That means if a client book a taxi/transport at least 3 hrs before the scheduled time, he/she will travel at a charge of $2.38 per mile. The taximeter begins to count from $2.75 at the beginning of the journey, when the rider presses the key.
Customers might ask: What's that for $2.75, we haven't even begun drawing yet? It' known as the Flag Dropping Ratio. It'?s standard procedure for any taxi business. That is what the client has to pay if, for example, he drives less than one car per day, changes his opinion and decides to get out of the car.
After that, for every mile driven, the $2.80 per mile will apply. Taximeter tariff computation is a feature of two parameter. Distances and times. Up to now we have talked about the issue of removal. However, the timer is also integrated in the counter. We have a corporate counter that charges the client one dollars every 82 seconds (one second and 22 seconds).
You can see how hard it is to know the precise costs of a taxi trip in advance, because even if it is possible to know the distances a client could cover with Google Map software (with pick-up and drop-off addresses), we don't know the costs of delays.
One 10-mile trip would charge the client $28 plus the $2.75 waste of flags, plus some delays, if any, charges (about 73 euro cent per min during the time the cab is not moving), plus a tip for the rider if the client chooses to do so.
