Guide fares from our standard distance pricing. Your exact fixed fare is confirmed before you book. Extras you choose or the airport charges, such as a child seat (A$10 each) or the A$12 airport pickup charge, are shown before you confirm.
Why a fixed fare often works out cheaper
A metered cab or a rideshare can look cheaper on a short hop. On longer trips, airport runs and late nights, metered time in traffic and surge multipliers add up. With a fixed fare you know the cost to the dollar before you go, which is why many Sydney travellers choose a flat rate taxi for anything over a few kilometres.
- No waiting-time ticking while you sit on the M5 or the Harbour Bridge.
- No surge after concerts, during storms or on public holidays.
- Waiting time agreed at booking and help with luggage are included.

Five ways to keep your taxi cost down
- Book the right size car. Two people with carry-ons do not need an SUV.
- Share a maxi with your group. Six friends in a Maxi 7 often pay less each than in two sedans. See maxi taxi near me.
- Pre-book airport runs. Your fare is locked in and the driver tracks your flight.
- Bring your own child seat if you have one, or add ours for A$10 each.
- Ask about return trips when you book both ways.
