If there are multiple people in the line going to Orient they MIGHT take more than one couple. IF they do, they should reflect it in the fare/price. There is a dispatcher at the airport and they will not allow a van to sit for very long without either loading people or moving them out. Not all taxis are vans either so if just 2 of you it could be a car.
To specifically answer your question, I do not think all vans will sit until fully loaded.

SeaStar said: What does Wilfred Brooks charge to go from the airport to Orient? I communicated with Mr. Brooks about this just a month or so ago. Going rate for a taxi in line is around $30 + luggage and tip and depending on where exactly you are going in the Orient area. If a special request is made for a specific driver and they need to park, meet you with a sign, wait for a delayed flight, make a grocery stop, etc. then the rate becomes negotiable and will be higher than the $30. For a specific request, I would suggest contacting Wilfred Brooks direct. Wilfred Brooks

DuxburyMA said: I was charged 50 on Saturday from Wilfred for two to go from airport to orient Did you make arrangements ahead of time for him to meet you or was he the next cab in line at the airport? When in doubt, one should ask the dispatcher and/or the driver and establish the fare before travel begins.
