The taximeter willl combine fractional measures of distance and time in accruing a unit of fare. Any combination of distance or time shall be computed by the taximeter.
The fare shall include pre-assessment of the unit currently being accrued; the amount due may therefore include a full unit charge for a final, fractional unit.

Peak hour Weekday Surcharge of $1.00: MON - FRI 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Tolls enroute to destinations within New York City are the responsibility of the passenger. On all trips within the New York City, any bridge and tunnel tolls to the destination shall be paid by the passenger, who shall be informed before the start of the trip.
On all trips within the City of New York, return tolls shall not be charged except for trips over the Cross Bay Veterans, Marine Parkway-Gil Hodges Memorial, and Verrazano Narrows Bridges.
On trips beyond the City of New York, all necessary tolls to and from the destination shall be paid by the passenger.
Flat Fare from JFK Airport:
The Taxi & Limousine Commission is conducting a Flat Fare program for trips between (to and from) the Manhattan and JFK International Airport.
The flat fare is $45.00 plus any tolls. The meter will not be turned on and the night surcharge will not be added.
If passengers request multiple stops, the flat rate of $45.00 will be collected at the first stop in either Manhattan or John F. Kennedy Airport, and the meter will be turned on for the remainder of the trip. The metered fare should be collected at the last stop, from the last passenger.

taxi fare to wasington dc
I would like get a taxi from FK airport to Washinton DC (Bethesda). How much does it cost?
Forget it, no NYC taxis will
Forget it, no NYC taxis will take you from JFK to DC, plus you can fly to DC cheaper than what a taxi would charge you! Delta and American Eagle have flights from JFK to Washington-Reagan National and United has flights to Washington-Dulles. You can also take the Amtrak train from Penn Station (starts @ $60) or Megabus or Boltbus ($25) from near Penn Station to DC. You can reach Penn Station from JFK by taxi ($55), NYAirports bus ($15) or AirTrain/LIRR ($13).
