Taxi Hack!:)

wolfy42 11/08/19 6:53:55 AM #1:	Hi Ya'll. Recently I flew to NY and I was annoyed to discover that it is about $15-20 more to get an uber/taxi from the Airport as apposed to getting one to drop you off there. I looked it up afterwards and some airports charge fees for taxis/ubers to pick up people (so they pass the fee on to you). I didn't think much about it afterwards because I was tired and had other things going on, but I just read about a hack you can use!! There are shuttles at the airport that will bring you to hotels etc for free, so if you just hop on one of them (preferably in the direction you want to go), you can save yourself alot of money. If your local, or fairly close it can drop a $40 fee down to about $10 (at least according to the article thing I was reading). Anyway, just thought I would mention it here as I was not happy about the extra cost and I know I will try and avoid it in the future. --- Zangulus "I try to avoid having any knowledge at all of his dick."

wolfy42 11/08/19 4:31:50 PM #21:	Actually when I went to Florida with my uncle awhile ago, he contacted a hotel in advance specifically about using their shuttle, and not only was it ok, they let us leave our luggage at their hotel for the day and watched it for us while we went to the everglades etc. It's not a bad idea to ask first, but yeah I'm pretty sure they have no problem with you using the shuttle since as mentioned above, it's gonna do the trip anyway, so unless it's full, your not really using any resources. --- Zangulus "I try to avoid having any knowledge at all of his dick."
