First non AI trip coming up! A few questions..

[zeppman]

Thanks for the replies! For those of you who use Linston (or another driver off the transport page), do you contact him before your trip?

As far as grabbing a taxi without planning ahead, you just walk to the road and flag down a car with a red plate, correct? Is it as easy as walking out of an establishment at night and flagging down a red plate in the same manner? I know, it's important to negotiate a price before you get in the car...

What do you usually tip for a cab?

What about tipping for a red stripe at a bar? Is it the standard $1 a drink (what would you tip in JA$)?

We got one of the smaller rooms, so no kitchen. We were told though that sometimes the ladies will make exceptions and cook a few meals for you for at a fair price/tip.
