The website was that of a taxi association, not an "official" entity.

I am glad to hear that a new list came out. Now we all have something to go by. I do believe the rate increase ( sorry to say this) was long overdue.

these new rates have been on the ready for months now.

apparently the government sets the rates and i assume that there are taxi drivers/owners involved too in the setting of the rates.

from what i understand, there had been no rate increase in years.

so, with the government's approval/endorsement the rates were set.

i do though want to hear from serry or bully and maybe one of them can explain the procedure better.

The same day I receive mine new price list from D.O.P.V. department of transportation I did sent Lisa a copy so she can keep giving every body that comes to Aruba the right information.
