How Metered Taxi Pricing Works Against You
A metered taxi fare in Montreal is calculated from distance and time — which means traffic congestion, detours, and waiting at the airport curb all add directly to your cost. During peak hours or bad weather, that unpredictability can turn a routine airport transfer into an expensive and stressful guessing game.
How Fixed Pricing Works Instead
With Royal Mount Limousine, your fare is calculated and confirmed at the time of booking, based on your actual pickup and drop-off locations — not the meter. If traffic is heavier than expected, your chauffeur takes the best available route and your price stays the same.
What's Built Into the Fixed Fare
- 60 minutes of free waiting time on airport pickups
- Airport parking fees, included
- Professional luggage assistance
- No surge pricing during peak arrival hours or bad weather
Point-to-Point vs. Hourly Pricing
Point-to-point transfers (airport, hotel, office) are priced per trip. For multi-stop days, hourly chauffeur hire is often more economical than booking several separate one-way trips, and keeps the same vehicle and driver with you throughout.
Corporate Billing
Corporate account holders receive consolidated monthly invoices at negotiated rates, removing the need to process individual receipts for every trip — a meaningful difference for finance and travel management teams handling frequent business travel.
The Real Comparison
A taxi may occasionally look cheaper on a short trip in light traffic. But for airport transfers, business travel, and any trip where reliability and predictability matter, fixed executive pricing consistently comes out ahead — both in cost certainty and in the experience itself.
