Called these guys this morning after striking out with Crown Black Car.
They answered the phone and said that they wanted a flat rate and then some "fuel surcharge" totaling something like $75 to get me to the airport.
They then jabbered loudly to each other in some Slavic or maybe Persian sounding language for about 45 seconds before getting back to me.
I'm not sure if they wanted me to haggle with them or something. I have better things to do with my time.
I told them not to bother, and just called for a normal cab which was available in 5 minutes, were happy and polite, and less than half the cost.
Car service is cool if it is somewhat competitive. I just want something reliable and not an obnoxious experience. I guess I'll be sticking with the cabs for now. read more
