sharecropper Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I have used the same guy for about 13 years but recently all his prices (or the prices of the people he subs the jobs on to) have gone up. IMO, they are now out of whack for the journeys. They are all cars, not taxis. Now he's charging: 1, 200 baht to and from Suvarnhabhumi (they pay tollway - wow). 1,500 for any pickup inside Bangkok (so could be Nana Hotel or Makkasan) to Jomtien. 1,800 from Jomtien to Don Mueang. Anyone else experienced price hikes recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonseeker Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Supposedly some comp. & drivers are preparing for higher/new tolls and are hiking prices already. Just what I heard from friends doing the trip often. MS> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumbini Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Uber has promotion for 1400 and they pay all tolls and supplement driver loosing $ to make this possible and that route popular . The promotions been going on since they started service in Chonburi area . That's from anywhere in Chonburi or Jomtien area to any area of Bangkok flat fare [emoji106] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumbini Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I was talking about promotion from Pattaya or Jomtien to anywhere in Bangkok or the reverse route that is much longer ride that airport . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumcr Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 OK. I made numerous trips last year (July) Jomtien to Bangkok (eye hospital) and Mr.T was 1,200 each way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumcr Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I just received email from Mr.T answering my question on fare from Jomtien to Bangkok (Asoke). 1,200 each way include tolls. Same fare as a year ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumbini Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Great rate do they pay tolls ? Feel a bit sad for the driver who is paid possibly so little after tolls and MT's fee is deducted . Hope after your ride the driver has a customer back too [emoji6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
