Airport minimum fare

I remember when the 10.00 minimum kicked in and on the first day I picked up an elderly but very well off couple from Venice at the La Quinta on Spruce.


I had picked up this couple and there 2 sets of matching luggage several times and I seem to remember it running about 5.25 and they gave you about 6.00. This is after helping them down form the second floor, which is cheaper then the ground floor.

On that day as soon as they got in the cab I pointed to the sticker on the window informing them of the new fare. The man said he would not pay it and I told him fine Ill put out there luggage on the curb...he then said he would pay but wanted to know why.

I told him the price of gas, the traffic in and on the way to the airport and dealing with luggage.

This was about 7 years ago, after that came a minimum of 3.00 per person for calls starting and ending "in town", that kicked in just before my last day.

Now you have a 25.00 form Howard Ave that's up from I think, 20.00 it all sounds good till you have to pay for gas and your lease, then there is problems.
