Taxis and the Uber / FreeNow reality

Greek law requires ride-hailing vehicles to be licensed taxis, so UberX has been unavailable since 2018: booking an Uber or FreeNow in Athens summons a standard yellow taxi charging the regulated meter rate, plus the app's booking fee. Airport journeys to the central Athens ring are on a fixed tariff of €40 between 05:00 and midnight and €55 from midnight to 05:00, including tolls and luggage. Taximeters are sealed and the driver cannot legally charge above the meter; the rank is at Exit 3 on the Arrivals level, staffed around the clock.
