    It was too good to last. Yellow taxis at NAIA airports are back to their old dirty schemes. Search the net for passenger experiences and you'll know.

    I experienced first hand last thursday the on a yellow taxi i took from NAIA2 to Pasay how one driver operates. The taxi's plate number was TYT497 . Instead of turning on the meter to show flagdown rate and travel rate, an incrementing number, i believe to be seconds travelled was showing as configured by the driver. My usual fare of P140 was quoted as P809, distance about 5Km. I paid P200 after some arguing. His excuse later was he forgot to reset the meter after i requested for the dispatch ticket he took from me.

    I want to file a complaint, but where and to whom? Parang wala rin naman mangyayari..tsk tsk tsk

    thats the sad part of it. unlike in cebu airport, they will give you something like a receipt with the plate number of the taxi written by the dispatcher. i didnt notice it until the dispatcher called my attention last wed. i read it while at the taxi. funny is the rate is somewhat higher by 50pesos only to the regular rate.

    dapat parang yung ibang fastfood, "no receipt, bill is on them".:D

    hehe, nice one sir.

    Dati naman nasubukan ko NAIA to Sta. Rosa Laguna, malaki na nga kita, humihirit pa ng pang-merienda. Dinagdagan ko ng P50, gusto pa add'tl. Binara ko na, magmemerienda ka ba o lalamon? Sabay baba at alis na agad. Buwisit eh.

    One time meron din ayaw mag-metro, sabi ko i-diretso mo sa LTO, hehe, ayaw din. Nag-metro na lang.

    Suwerte ka if reimburse ng company pamasahe, pero kung personal, maintindihan ko kung bakit mas mainit ulo ng iba.

    I attest to this, in fact, this is so even before the yellow cabs at Mactan Airport. The fare you have to pay for your destination is clear in the dispatch slip which also serve as your receipt. Medyo mas mahal nga lang ng P 50-75 compared to regular metered taxi, but to think na this yellow airport taxis are not allowed to pick-up passengers on their way back to the airport, i think the extra mark-up is fair enough.

    At NAIA-1, they also have these contracted taxis, the tariffs for each zone are clearly shown in a large display board. I usually use this services and not the metered taxis, they are a bit expensive but at least you dont have to deal later on with unexpected hassles.

    You should have answered him that it wasn't your fault when he excused himself for not resetting the meter. Proceed with your complaint sir so that these cabs will learn their lesson

    don't ever ride on Naia Yellow cabs. if you need to ride a cab upon your arrival in Naia airports. make sure you exit at the DEPARTURE AREAS. and not on the Arrival areas. by then, you will now have abundance of regular white cabs waiting outside the departure area.
