© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi Checking where the taxi is: Your taxi hasn’t turned up on time, so you need to find out why: “Hello, my name is Mr. Smith. I ordered a taxi for 8p.m. at XYZ Street. It’s 8:15 now. Could you check what has happened please?” “Can you make sure one arrives as soon as possible?”

© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi In a hotel: You are staying at a hotel and would like to ask a hotel employee to organize a taxi for you. You ask the receptionist: “Could you organize a taxi for me for this evening please? I need to be picked up at 7p.m to go out for a business dinner.” “Could you book a taxi to take me to the train station tomorrow morning please? I need to be at the station at 8:30a.m. What time do you think should I leave?”

© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi You ask the doorman/porter: “Excuse me, could you hail a taxi for me please?” “Excuse me, I need a taxi please.” “Excuse me, could you get a taxi for me please?” You would like to know in advance how much the taxi is likely to cost: “How much is the typical taxi fare to the airport/train station/city centre etc?”

© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi In the taxi You need to tell the driver where you want to go: “Could you take me to ‘The Irish Pub’ on 123 XYZ Street please?” You need to tell the driver you are in a hurry: “I’m really in a hurry, so can you take the quickest route please?” You are not sure you are at the right address: “Are you sure this is 123 XYZ Street? I can’t see ‘The Irish Pub.”

© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi You need to know how much to pay: “How much is the fare please?” “How much do I owe you?” You feel the service was good and you want to give the taxi driver a tip: “Keep the change.” Then, if the driver thanks you, you reply: “You’re welcome.”

© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi Max got off the plane in Los Angeles and now needs a taxi to his hotel. He is unsure about where to go so he decided to go to the information stand inside the airport (terminal) for direction. Max: "Excuse me. Could you please tell me where I can get a taxi?" Customer Service Representative (CSR): You can exit the main floor and flag a taxi or you can push the "taxi call" button in the exit. However, there are usually taxis sitting out front waiting for customers, so you can easily get one there. Max: Thank you. CSR: You are welcome. If you are having trouble finding one you can come back here and I'll call a taxi for you. Max: Thanks again. Max exits the terminal and finds a taxi... Max: Could you take me to the Radisson Hotel, please? How long to you think it will take to get there?

© 2011 wheresjenny.com How to book a taxi Taxi driver: It's very close to the airport, so it should take about 5 minutes to get there. Max: That's perfect, because I had a really long flight. Taxi driver: Where are you travelling from? Max: Augusta, Maine. Taxi driver: Here we are. We have arrived. Max: Great! How much will that be? Taxi driver: Your fare is 6 dollars. Max: Here's a 10. Please, keep the change. Taxi driver: Thank you. Have a good stay! Max: Thank you.
