On the Subject of Taxis....

[smith744]

the difference between route and charter isn't just chump change to a lot of us.!

Consider this scenario:::::::::

I'm traveling solo
staying at one of those Rui resorts

i've got two taxi options:::: route-taxi or charter-taxi

I want to explore downtown and roam around Negril on a regular basis
on a 5-day vacation

i can make that 5-minute drive to downtown for Ja $200 round-trip route-taxi
or
i can charter-taxi for Ja$800 round-trip (if i can find a driver to do it)

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

do that Ja$800 enough-times, and we're talking about a whole-lot of money (for me)

Nope..!!..
I can't dew-wheat
can't manage

If you're staying at Riu paying 3 - 4 hundred a day you'd do what?????

lol
lol
that was a hypothetical
...'cause me-personally can't afford US $300-400 per day

but if i was staying at a Negril Rui, i would NOT use a charter-taxi
and i would definitely NOT use one of those charter-taxi that sit outside the resort
and i would NOT have the front-desk call a taxi for me

i would walk to the main road and hail a route-taxi

Jeez man... One of those women at the desk is my nephew's baby mother and the other is my son's ex-baby mother.....

Can't they make a little money from the guests?

[smith744]

and the other is my son's ex-baby mother.....

there's no such thing as an EX baby momma

once a baby momma
always a baby momma

nevertheless,
sorry .....
front-desk people gonna have to get the money from the next-guest,
'cause i'm NOT the-one.

no sir!!!! something has to keep downpressing people into higgling on the beach.

i'll leave others to the discussion now, before i get accused of owning taxis and other assorted conspiracies lmao.

but seriously, the logic here, is of the whackiest calibre sometimes, it's like blood is thicker than water but maple syrup is thicker than blood so pancakes are more important than family....when really all you have to do is just get a freaking cab, and if you are not a solo traveler trying to eke out your last 15 or 20 bucks *generally* your best bet is to just get a cab, which would be a charter...
