In most places, taxis are plentiful, reliable and not very expensive. The meter should be running unless there is a fixed fare (as is the case from some airports). Fare supplements may be added to the meter price for journeys at night, at weekends or for station/airport departures. Prices should be displayed on the inside window of the taxi.
