How to Get a Taxi at The Monopolized Place In Bali


 To get a taxi in Bali exactly easy bother. There are places where all the taxis can not pick up passengers. For example, in the Airport. Due to the current airport taxi from the airport is still monopolizing transportation  to a destination outside the airport. 

In some places and hotels also have to apply the system of monopoly, taxi from outside may not take passenger in place or hotel. However, usually the place / hotel still allowing his guest ride taxi from outside as long calls by phone directly to taxi operator intended. So they will know if the taxi who came  would take the guest with show the guest data to be retrieved

Besides, there are also several places that implement the monopoly by placing the words "TAXI DROP  ONLY". There are two rules that apply in a place like this. 

1. Can take but must order.
 
2. Really can not take.

Why did they do that and prohibit taxis from outside to pick up passenger ?
Does this not violate the passenger freedom to choose the desired taxi?

These are two main reasons why they do it.

1.Transportation is available in place / hotel.

2.The second is due to competition. They do not want to land his job taken by outsiders, although sometimes violate the rules. So they do "tricks" like that.

If you need more options and looking for desired taxi when you are on the place as I have mentioned like above, it means you are in the right place because I will give  you several tips here that will help during stay in Bali.

A. At the Airport

* If you do not bring a lot of stuff, you can walk +/- 200 meters toward the airport exit gate.There, you can hail a taxi that you want  freely or it could be  at a ticket gate when you came out of the airport, you look there are taxis on the queue was paying ticket, you can  ride the taxi directly there.(Usually the taxi driver will immediately offer his services when he sees them in the surrounding passengers).

"Yes sir..Taxi..Taxi..do you need taxi sir ?!"

* You can  call  the taxi driver that you know to pick up directly. This sort of thing is usually done for those who are used to Bali. It will not cause conflict between taxi drivers because they (picked) are already familiar with their guest.

* Write on a small paper, example: " I need a taxi, call me immediately, I wait in 1-2 minutes " and quickly give the paper to the taxi driver who happened to dropping the guest or there is taxi passing by in the airport area. If there is confirmation from driver then the driver will guide you to the pick-up  place.

B. At the Hotel

* You can ask to hotel receptionist to telephone a taxi  you the intention although in the hotel provided the transport implement.
Remembered, this was your right to free chose !

* You can call by phone  the taxi operator directly  to pick you up. Don't forget for confirmation to the hotel receptionist to contact you when taxi has come. In several cases of the receptionist did not want informed taxi has come on the basis of the guest not confirmation to him.
