145.00 ?? ya got to kidding. You're not going to meet Kevin at the Taxi stand. 40.00 with a generous tip from STT to the ferry is the most we've paid. And you don't wait for the cattle car to fill. AndyPIT said:
Not sure if I ever met Kevin but it seems anyone who is remotely honest and helpful could make a fortune hauling people from the airport to the ferry terminal for $145 each way!!!!!! in a van worth about $2k... really! Seems most of the guys like to stand around and touch your bag for two seconds and ask for money... the classic line "I take care of your bags, you take care of me... he carry's drags them 3 feet and goes to the next guy for a tip.
Personally, I love the guy who wears the "KILLIN IT" hat..
I seem to shed more money from STT to the base in RT than anywhere else LOL

sail445 said:Rhans, I fly stand by just so I can afford to call Big K Kevin and slip him a grand to drop me off at the Beach Comber Hotel <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> Nice one <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Doh.gif" alt="" /> But yes... at the ferry stand they charge $9pp to the ferry terminal +$3per small bag and $6per large bag. They wait till they fill the van and dispatch it. So yes, they make between $120 and $160 each way. So You are saying Kevin is different and his base rate even for 10 adults is $40.00 total ($4 per person including bags) to the Ferry sttn? Saying it this way is actually helpful information to the forum.

I don't believe kevin charges any more per head than the airport taxi association. Independent drivers can't solicit business inside the airport area. Kevin is not a member of the association so he can only do airport pickups by pre-aranged call. The difference is his service is so much more personal.
