Taxi, predetermined fare to MilanorATB line 1?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Taxi, predetermined fare to Milan reaches Milano Centrale, where every coach terminates; the ATB line 1 does not. This bus goes to BERGAMO, not to Milan. It is the right answer if Bergamo is where you are going, or if you are connecting to a train — the station is 10 minutes away. It is not a way into Milan.

The ATB line 1 is quicker: 10 min against 55 min. The Taxi, predetermined fare to Milan varies between 45 and 90 minutes.

Taxi, predetermined fare to Milan: Runs all night. ATB line 1: hours not recorded.

EUR 128 is about sixteen times the advertised coach fare. It buys a door and a boot at an hour when nothing else runs, and for one or two travelers it is very hard to justify otherwise.

The predetermined fare covers Milan. There is no predetermined fare to Bergamo, 6 km away, so that ride is metered.

A standard taxi seats four. A party of five is two cars and EUR 256, because the fare is per ride and not per person.

It reaches Bergamo, not Milan. From Bergamo station a Trenord train runs to Milano Centrale, but that is a second ticket and a second leg, and no total for the pair is stated here because neither operator publishes one.

The current timetable is the summer one, in force from 3 August, so the first and last departures change with the season and are not stated here.

ATB's "Family & Friends" fare is urban-zone only and runs on Saturdays and holidays. The airport is three zones, so it does not apply to this journey.
