    • also make sure its a yellow cab that is licensed to be at the airport.e-pill
    • make sure you get the ticket stub from the taxi so its legit, there is a lot of gypsies cabs.e-pill
    • the gypsie cabs arent licensed to be there and charge anything they want..e-pill
    • taxi's in nyc are not run by the amount of people, it is all based off the meter.e-pill
    • for tip.. something around $5-$10e-pill
