The Industry

The airport terminal has its own sheltered taxi rank with taxi concierges on hand to ensure a smooth flow of taxis for travelers.

Taxi Concierges can also organise taxis with, wheelchair access, 5 seaters, station wagons for lots of baggage, and maxi taxis for groups. From February 2006, a $2.00 Airport service fee is payable by all passengers taking a taxi from Adelaide Airport’s Terminal 1 taxi rank, this is on top of the fare.

Taxi Concierges experienced in operating at Managed Taxi Ranks together with security guards if needed, can be monitored by the police and close circuit CCTV to provide a safe and Managed environment for people to access taxis, to ease traffic congestion and prevent problems between potential passengers vying to get away after a late night out.  They can feel confident that they can access a taxi safely and hassle free.  Taxi drivers feel happier in the knowledge that customers will be seeking only licensed taxis in a safe environment.

The Taxi Industry is ripe with opportunity for career progression into different paths. While the commonly held view of a career in the industry is one of a driver, there are many other options that many may not be aware of.

The Taxi Industry performs a vital role in passenger transport. Our entire community depends on taxi travel at some point of time, from tourists to big business, the elderly, the young, people with disabilities, including people with assistance animals (guide dogs and hearing dogs) and the greater population, all are reliant on the services the taxi industry provides.
