Can we go to Coz yet?

[DandyDon]

I doubt very much that a Cancun cab driver can pick up a fare in Playa and I am sure that the Playa driver can't take a fare in the airport.

Happens every day.

I think you are wrong on this.

I'm not 100% certain, but I seem to remember my guy having Cancun on his door.

Is there a cost efficient taxi/shuttle from the ferry terminal to the airport in Cancun for one person if I don't want to take ADO?

Anyone have recommendations?

There is no one regulating taxi pickups in PLC or controlling who can enter the airport for drop offs. Pickup up at the airport is controlled.

I stand corrected. He told me 850 Pesos or about $39 USD.

850 pesos one way is the current rate. 1700 RT. But he asked for $40 US upon drop off...

That's correct.
If they get caught, the punishment would not sting; It would hurt really bad.

Ok, maybe the taxi has to be licensed to go to the airport for drop-offs, but if a licensed taxi takes a fare from the airport to PDC, they don't want to return empty.

They may not, but do you have the foggiest notion of what the Playa taxi union would do to that poor sap?

I said "I am sure that the Playa driver can't take a fare in the airport."
I am well aware a Playa driver can drop off a fare at the airport.

Unless things have changed a Cancun cab can't pick up a fare in Playa. The taxi mafia just doesn't allow it. I don't know anything about how special van transfers work. You may think there is no one regulating taxi pickups in Playa but the Playa taxi drivers most likely disagree.
