Taxi fares, particularly for traveling to and from the airport, are often governed by local laws. For instance, the New York City Taxi and Limousine Commission establishes set cab fares from NYC to Newark International Airport (regular metered rate of fare, plus a $17.50 surcharge and all tolls) and Manhattan to John F. Kennedy International Airport ($52.00 plus any tolls).
However, the actual cost of a cab fare can vary significantly across the country and across the world. To avoid “sticker shock,” we have compiled a list of the average taxi costs for several popular business travel destinations:
National Destinations
International Destinations
It is also advisable not to accept offers of transportation from solicitors in the terminal. In most U.S. cities, the practice is illegal and, therefore, only used by unlicensed and uninsured operators. Most airports have taxi stands, which only accept authorized transportation providers.
