The agreement was reached during a meeting between limousine and metered taxi operators at Phuket International Airport on Friday. Chaired by the Under Secretary of the Governor’s Office Niwit Arunrat, it was agreed that both metered taxies and limousine operators will set up service counters together near the entrance of the terminal. They are allowed to have 3 cars waiting at a time. This however needs approval from the airport authority. On the limousine side, they agreed to modify 60 vehicles with a minimum of 2000cc giving service as metered taxies, to provide alternatives for passengers. It is expected to take one month before they can be operational. If things go as planned, there will be almost 200 metered taxies, limousines and minibuses offering services to passengers, sufficient for demand of 700 trips per day.

Does this mean we won't have to "hoof" it across the parking lot to get a cab???
