That's a high surcharge....
Anyway, we don't really rely on cab here (in Oz) that much as
they are too expensive and Oz itself is quite big and it takes at
30 min to travel from A to B. It will burn a big hole in our
hip pocket.....
The biggest surcharge is the midnight surcharge, which increases
taxi fares by 50% from midnight to 5:59 AM. A close second is the
peak period surcharge, a premium of 35% from 7 AM to 9:30 AM from
Monday to Friday, as well as from 5 PM to 8 PM from Monday to
Saturday.
