furries at the airport complaining about Uber surge pricing and PROTIP: taxis charge a flat rate, are available immediately from the taxi stand at PIT and you’re not contributing to the stupid gig economy!!!!

I think a lot of furries simply forget taxis exist or are too young to actually understand what they are in a space that swiftly became dominated by rideshare apps.

My cab at FWA was, I think, $20 and people were being charged $75 for the same Uber lol

Oh yeah. Saved like $30 going with a cab at AC.

My city only recently got Uber; taxis are cheaper, and usually more professional. Also there is a taxi app lol

i have always had a pleasant time with taxis honestly, and they’re consistently good. with uber, you never know what you’re gonna get.

yeah! maybe sometimes I get a beat to shit taxi Camry with a billion miles, but my driver knows where to go (because they do it everyday!!!) when I tell them the destination (even clarifying if there’s two similar properties!), and in the end it’s cheaper and more money goes to them directly!

Also the 28x bus passes all the downtown hotels and costs like $3 :p

I still remember that time I went to MFF and a freaking LIMO was cheaper than a taxi or Uber so we got one. Arrived to the hotel in style. Must have been a slow time for the limo company!

yesss, I checked out limo rentals for a furry Vegas trip and it was like $20 over a standard taxi AND they gave us a bottle of champagne (probably more Vegas-specific buuuut, always worth it to check out black car/limo transportation companies in the area!)

The Pittsburgh mass transit system has a very cheap shuttle bus that runs directly from the airport to downtown a few blocks from the con center. They can accommodate large numbers of fursuit bags too. I've always used them whenever flying into Pittsburgh
