I have to drop my 2 cents about taxis from SJU to & from Isla Grande based on our experience in January '09...on the topic of being taken advantage of. When you take the taxi from SJU to Isla Grande (where Flamenco flies out of for all those who are unfarmiliar), you receive an "order form" from the taxi stand that clearly states the price...$15?? (something close to that - can't remember exactly) We were warned that when taking the taxi FROM Isla Grande to SJU (where there are NO taxi stands), the taxis will try to get $25.00 for the same trip. This exact thing happened to us, but because we were prepared, we asked him right away what it would cost. When he told us "$25.00", we flashed the receipt from the way over, and told him we would only pay $15. He reluctantly agreed, and probably wished he wasn't taking us. Understandably, as a tourist, one would normally just suck it up and not want to make a big deal about it. I'm sure they cash in on a lot of uninformed people.
