WHEN SHOULD YOU HEAD TO THE AIRPORT?
Charley’s Taxi recommends arriving at the airport 2 hours prior to domestic flights and 3 hours prior to international flights to account for traffic delays and long lines for agriculture screening, flight and baggage check-in, and TSA security. During slow times you may breeze through all of those, but when it gets busy you’ll be glad you got there so early. Charley’s Taxi is not responsible for missed flights.

Discounted Flat Rates are one way, per car, and do not include stops or route deviations. Valid for up to 4 passengers with bags (1 suitcase & 1 carry-on per person) or up to 5 passengers with no bags. Drivers are required by law to run the meter on Flat Rate trips and will adjust the final meter rate down to the appropriate Flat Rate at the end of the trip. Driver will charge regular meter rate for the trip if any stops or route deviations are requested. Gratuities not included. No other discounts apply to Flat Rates.

It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure any belongings in the main seating compartment of the vehicle are securely packed and fastened, and that any breakable items are protected while in our vehicles. Your driver, who is an independent contractor, and Charley’s Taxi assume no liability in the event of damage, loss or theft of any such property (including but not limited to luggage and golf bag wheels and handles) and will not be responsible for losses incurred, including but not limited to, loss of future profit, potential income, and additional expenses or losses incurred as a result of lost or stolen baggage or personal property.

4.712% State G.E. Tax is not included in Flat Rates. The Airports Division of the Hawaii DOT imposes a 7% Pre-Arranged Ground Transportation Pick-Up tax. This tax does not apply to airport drop-off services. Your driver may add this Hawaii DOT tax to the final* meter or Flat Rate fare.

* final fare means the meter fare after discounts are applied for military, seniors, and persons with disabilities. ID is required for military and senior discounts. These discounts do not apply to Flat Rates.

City and State park fees as well as parking costs (at hospitals and medical or business offices, for example) incurred in the process of providing transportation will also be added to your fare.

$6.38 extra charge for each bicycle, golf bag, surfboard or items over 80 pounds, more than 4ft in length, or over 10 cubic feet in size. Driver will charge $5.00 each for additional terminal drop-offs. A fuel surcharge of $2.60 per trip will be added to your fare.

Passengers who damage or soil the taxi will be responsible for the cost of repairs and/or OSHA compliant cleaning.

Due to traffic congestion and delays, Charley’s Taxi may suspend Flat Rates and revert to taxi meter rates on Halloween, Black Friday, and New Year’s Eve (from 4pm on 12/31 to 6am on 1/1). We may also suspend Flat Rates 2 hours before, during, and 2 hours following major Holidays, Sporting Events, Concerts, and major road closures.
