Taxi related question. I looked at the 'official chart' and wonder why there is a $2 gas surcharge. Gas prices are way down compared to a year ago. It is nice that the rates are fixed, but $12 to travel 2 miles to the Isla Verde area? I don't mind an airport premium, but I take umbrage at rip-offs. I might gamble for 30 or 40 minutes waiting for the bus. Or can you walk to Isla Verde area? I'll only be in SJU for 18 hours doing a MR, so saving $20 in cab fares will buy some nice local food.
