Standard vs Executive Taxi: Which Should You Book?

If you've never booked anything above a Standard taxi, it's easy to assume "Executive" just means a nicer air freshener. In practice, the difference comes down to three things: the car, the driver experience, and reliability for time-sensitive trips.

Our Standard Taxi covers most everyday journeys comfortably -- four seats, two bags, and a fixed price with no surge. Executive steps up to a higher-spec saloon, more legroom, and a driver held to a stricter presentation standard -- the kind of thing that matters for client meetings or picking up a visiting colleague from the airport.

As a rule of thumb: book Standard for routine trips, and Executive when the impression you make on arrival actually matters.
