A taxi to the airport in Melbourne was >AUD100 from where I am more than 10 years ago. An Uber is ~AUD70 still, past all the subsidies.
pffft - 901 Bus to Broadmeadows station, then jump onto the train to Southern Cross
Total cost: $AU2.85
Takes FOREVER though :)
Yes but what’s a taxi to the airport cost now? Otherwise the comparison doesn’t mean much.
