Tip: White Mercedes limos are a flat $35 to anywhere in Singapore -- including after midnight (but they only run until 2 AM). When you figure in the 50% night surcharge plus S$3-5 for the airport surchange for normal taxis, this may actually work out cheaper if you're going to the west side of town.
