If I have a lot of stuff late...flat fee 200 to CMU...or 100 on a red otherwise leaving empty. What a totally crap way to travel. Too many variables.

If you are travelling lights, as many do, and it is a nice day, which is often, you walk twelve minutes and it is likely your ride will be at the light by the police booth. Welcome to my ignore list.

jobin Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 No one asked but i like to ride the tuk-tuk when on my way to the airport. Of course, i need to book in advance as i depart my place about 4:30 am, with fare already negotiated. Never a problem, the roads are open and the air clean. All this is done in person as i have no smartphone; it's just the way i like to do things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really mean too many variables or do you mean too many options/choices for you to be able to make a balanced decision based on the variables like weather, time of day, luggage, mood etc? Some people like lots of options based on the variables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people like lots of options based on the variables. The poster points out his travel methods which seem overly complicated and full of 'ifs and buts'. That's what I mean with too many variables. The alternative is Uber/Grab. Point to point transport that's comfortable, safe, reliable, quick and transparently priced and limits these unwanted variables. Unfortunately there are some issues with transport to/from the airport with these guys, a surcharge to name one, but not much they can do about it with taxi mafia looking for confrontations.

You obviously just want your travel spoon fed to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
