Re: Batam Info Thread

Time to plan for my 8th trip to Batam ,i have some small questions that i am seeking answers on as below :

1. Is the bottom picture shown,a taxi booking number for Blue Bird?



2. Do the operators for Blue Bird taxi booking speaks English?

3. What are the things to watch out for when making a taxi booking?

4. Reason why i ask the 3rd question is becos i read from this thread that they are not allow to park inside Harbour Bay and i wonder if i book them,where should i be waiting for the taxi if they aren't allow to park at Harbour Bay?

In my coming trip,i am going to learn how to book and take a Taxi from Blue Bird. I know it may sound silly to some senior bros here but i feel that everything will also have 1st time.I am a newbie and i am willing to learn and later provide the necessary info to others once i gather them in my next Batam field trip. Blue Bird taxi is cheaper as they run by meter reading (but not worth if the place i go is very far) and i would like to learn more options of taking taxis in Batam beside just bargaining from unlicensed taxi drivers.

Hope someone who has experience in Batam Blue Bird taxi booking can help or at least show me a path to seek for answers.

My most sincere thanks to you.
