The taximeter willl combine fractional measures of distance and time in accruing a unit of fare. Any combination of distance or time shall be computed by the taximeter.

On all trips within the City of New York, return tolls shall not be charged except for trips over the Cross Bay Veterans, Marine Parkway-Gil Hodges Memorial, and Verrazano Narrows Bridges.
On trips beyond the City of New York, all necessary tolls to and from the destination shall be paid by the passenger.
Flat Fare from JFK Airport:
The Taxi & Limousine Commission is conducting a Flat Fare program for trips between (to and from) the Manhattan and JFK International Airport.
The flat fare is $45.00 plus any tolls. The meter will not be turned on and the night surcharge will not be added.
If passengers request multiple stops, the flat rate of $45.00 will be collected at the first stop in either Manhattan or John F. Kennedy Airport, and the meter will be turned on for the remainder of the trip. The metered fare should be collected at the last stop, from the last passenger.

No taxi from JFK will take
No taxi from JFK will take you to Baltimore and it would cost you hundreds of $$$. Best is to go to Penn Station (take taxi @$50 or NYAS express bus $15 from terminal) and take Amtrak train or Megabus bus (cheaper than train) from outside the station to Baltimore. Then you can take a local taxi to Reisterstown.
hI I would like to know if I
hI I would like to know if I can take a taxi from JFK TO TIMES SQUARE.We are 4 person and 5 gig suitcasses? or if better take a shuttle or a limo? and Can you tell me the price? thanks
re: if I can take a taxi from JFK TO TIMES SQUARE.
Speak to the taxi dispatcher(at the taxi stand in front of the terminal) to determine if the bags will fit in the taxi. In that case the price will be flat fee of $45 plus toll($5).
If the bags won't fit in a cab then you can speak to the folks at Ground transportation counter(Welcome Center) regarding private van. It will cost you around $80-$100.

Hello I was just wondering if anyone could help. I fly into JFK and I have to catch a bus at New York, NW Corner of 9th Ave and 31st St, I am not too sure where that is! I was just wondering if anyone knew how expensive that would be? I am needing it on the 6th January at 9.30pm at night.
I would really appreciate any help!
How expensive what would be?
How expensive what would be? A taxi from JFK to 31st/9th? $45+toll and tip is the flat rate for a taxi from JFK to Manhattan, total fare for up to 4 people. I would never take a cab for this trip, though...your destination is very close to Penn Station, so you could save substantial money by taking the $5 AirTrain to Jamaica station and an LIRR train for about $9 to Penn.

I will be travelling from JFK to 1 Healthy Way, Oceanside, NY, and it will be a round trip on nov. 18, how do you think this will cost me?
Manhattan towards JFK
Maybe this is a stupid question but... FROM Manhattan TO JFK, would it be the same rate with any yellow cab? Can you just hail it ?
Thanks !
Yes, you can hail a cab in
Yes, you can hail a cab in Manhattan and it will cost you the same flat rate($45+toll) to JFK.
actually no, it will cost
actually no, it will cost you the meter amount.
the flat rate only applies to trips FROM JFK to the city.
flat rate from Manhattan to JFK
Just to clarify this - here is an exempt from TLC web site(http://www.nyc.gov/html/tlc/html/passenger/taxicab_rate.shtml):
"For trips between (to and from) Manhattan and JFK International Airport, the flat fare is $45.00 plus any tolls using Rate Code 2 on the meter. A NY State Tax Surcharge of $.50 will be added to each trip. "
So the flat rate applies both ways. Only on yellow cabs.
