The flat fare applies to the city center inner ring. The airport does not publish where that boundary runs, so for an address outside the middle of Athens, agree the basis of the fare before setting off.
Greek law requires the driver to issue a receipt for the amount paid.
Journey time is the least predictable here: Mesogeion Avenue at rush hour is slower than the metro that runs beside it.
