The taxi didn't arrive or was late. Who is responsible for the missed flight and additional costs?
The car was supposed to be at your house at 5:00 a.m. The app still says "looking for a driver," even though you booked a ride the previous day. Or the driver is already assigned, but the arrival time has changed from five minutes to fifteen. When it comes to a plane, bus, or important meeting, it's not just about getting your fare refunded. You need to determine who agreed to transport you, what they promised, and whether their failure resulted in a tangible loss. Taxi didn'

TAXI technical inspection: what do they check and how to prepare the car?
In Poland, during an annual taxi inspection, the diagnostician checks the vehicle's technical condition, its markings, and required equipment. Among other things, he or she checks brakes, suspension, tires, and lighting. If your car has a taximeter, you'll need a valid legalization document, and for LPG installations, you'll need tank documentation. Learn how a periodic inspection differs from a supplementary inspection, how much you'll pay, and what formalities await you aft

Child seat in taxi and airport transfer – what should parents know?
Traveling to or from the airport with a child requires planning in advance not only for luggage and a stroller, but also for a suitable car seat. Polish regulations allow for the transport of a child by taxi without a car seat in certain situations, but this legal exception does not mean that such a journey is equally safe. It's worth knowing which car seat to choose, what to provide the carrier with when booking, and what to look out for before you start your journey. Especi

How to check the side number of a taxi in Poland and Europe?
Standing in front of a taxi and want to check if it's really the car you're supposed to be driving? Don't just look at the company logo or the sticker on the door. Read the side number, write down the license plate number, and check the details in the city's taxi database, if available. In Gdańsk and Wrocław, you can do this online. In other cities, you'll need to contact the licensing office for information. The mere presence of a number on a vehicle does not constitute conf

The TAXI Rooster, or the TAXI lamp – recipes, history, types and curiosities from around the world
The TAXI light looks like one of the simplest car components: an illuminated housing, the word "TAXI," and that's pretty much it. But this unassuming element can do much more. Depending on the country, it can indicate when a taxi is available, display the current fare, identify a specific company, or even send a signal that the driver is in distress. In Poland, it also has more functions than the roof sign suggests. What exactly is a TAXI cock and what is it used for? What sh

Where are the Taxi zones in Tricity?
In Gdańsk and Sopot, the pricing zone overlaps with the city's administrative boundaries. This means, among other things, that Gdańsk Airport is still in the same zone as the city center, and when traveling from Gdańsk to Sopot, you only leave it at the border between the two cities. The situation becomes more complicated when driving throughout the entire Tricity area, as some companies extend their zones to include Sopot, Gdynia, or all three cities. The border on the map i

The gig economy in passenger transport. How does app-based work actually work?
You can choose when to turn on the app, but that doesn't mean you're truly your own boss. In the gig economy, the platform sees more, sets the rules of the game, influences prices, and measures your decisions, while you bear a significant portion of the costs of running the course. Flexibility is real—complete independence isn't. If you want to assess who truly benefits from this model, consider who sets the rules, who bears the risk, and who controls the data. What is the gi

Ethiopia Taxi: A Guide to Ethiopian Taxi Services
Ethiopia's transportation system is an asymmetric hybrid combining street-level hailing with e-hailing apps and authorized state fleets. Users book a standard ride on their smartphone for €1.30, the cost of the basic technology in the metropolitan area. Airports, where only the state fleet enters, behave quite differently. The taximeter in the arrivals terminals starts at 250 ETB (1.94 EUR). The basis of urban mobility outside the city centers are the ubiquitous Bajaj three-w

What does an airport transfer look like?
Most passengers waste the first 15 minutes after landing chaotically searching for transport outside the terminal, circling between unmarked cars. Meanwhile, your driver may already be waiting for you in the arrivals hall before your suitcase even appears on the conveyor belt. An organized airport pickup not only provides convenience but, above all, predictability, which is often lacking after a tiring journey. Learn how to book such a transfer and avoid the stress of an unfa

Best Minivans for Taxi Work
Most taxi drivers spend thousands of zlotys a year on the wrong car, and the problem begins much earlier than at the fuel pump. A faulty diesel engine, a cramped third row or a DSG gearbox after 200,000 kilometers can turn a profitable business into a bottomless financial pit. That's why it's not just fuel consumption that matters, but also the durability of the engine, passenger space, and the cost of any future repairs.

How much does a transfer from the airport to the hotel cost?
A fixed-price airport transfer isn't a "luxury for tourists," it's the most sensible choice—and riding a taximeter often overpays for traffic jams you can't control.
