thaigene2 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I thought the taxis couldn't pick up at the Terminal - only drop off. Didn't the newspaper report that there was some kind of shuttle bus to take arriving passengers from the terminal to a taxi queue some 8 K away. Has this changed? Can they pick up right outside the door now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdinasia Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 (edited) Taxis will indeed pick-up at arrivals ... but not many will be allowed to stand there .... (and the main taxi staging area is 2-3km's away by free shuttle. The same shuttle that takes passengers to the bus center) The whole loop is only 6km .... 3 out and 3 back Edited September 24, 2006 by jdinasia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you mean you have two choices. Wait for a taxi at the Arrivals curb, or get on a bus that will take you to other taxis? Will there be a stationary taxi rank then at Arrivals too? Or are these drivers just circling waiting for a flag? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astral Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Stationary taxi-rank ... with a captain to call more taxis from the parking area That sounds like KL's new airport, where there is invariably a shortage of taxis at the terminal building.

nephilim Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 It is not 100B + Metre. I landed at the new airport on monday morning. I got a taxi from outside the arrivals hall. The airport surcharge is 50B (same as DM), then you pay Metre on top of that. I came to Asoke area, which is an additional 25B for the tollway. So, base charge is 50 + metre, from outside arrivals.

jdinasia Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 it doesn't amaze me ... we'll have to see what it is when the airport is slly open ... 50 like DM or 100 as the press releases have said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nephilim Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 BTW, the "airport limos" we've all heard about? their desks are right by where you get into the arrivals area from customs. Out of interest, I asked price - it took them *10 mins* to figure it out, I kid you not. And then they wanted 900B to Asoke. Ha, I just laughed at them and got a cab.
