Question 1

Is taking the HSR from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office a good idea?

Accepted Answer

To take the High Speed Rail (HSR) from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office, HSR is expensive and slow. From the earliest departure at 06:59 to the latest at 23:30, there are up to 60 high-speed rail from Chiayi to Zuoying each day. Assuming you depart from Wenya Elementary School (East District, Chiayi City)  and head to the nearest Chiayi HSR station, a taxi ride would cost about NT$400 and take approximately 30 minutes. After arriving at the HSR station, the time to walk in, purchase tickets, and wait on the platform is about 15 minutes. Then, take a 29-31-minute (30 min on average) HSR ride from Chiayi Station to Zuoying HSR Station. The ticket price is NT$410 per person, followed by a 10-minute walk to exit the station, wait for a ride at the taxi stand, and after a trip of about 59 minutes with a fare of NT$1,400, you will arrive at your destination at Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office (Donggang Township, Pingtung County). The entire journey, including transfers, takes a total of 2 hours and 24 minutes. Assuming 2 people traveling together, the average cost per person for the HSR and transfers is NT$1,310. In contrast, if you use Tripool for a door-to-door private car service, the average cost per person is about NT$1,260, and the journey takes 2 hours and 7 minutes. Choosing the HSR over a private charter will not only cost each person at least an extra NT$50 in fares but also waste an additional 17 minutes on transfers and waiting. Book with Tripool now! If you are traveling alone, you can also consider Tripool's carpooling service to save up to an additional 50% on transportation costs.

Question 2

Is it advisable to rent a car and drive from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office?

Accepted Answer

Travelers usually do not choose to rent or drive to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office. After all, leaving a car parked for multiple days means that parking fees and rental costs become a substantial expense.

Question 3

Would it be economical to take a taxi from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office?

Accepted Answer

If you choose to take a taxi directly, in the Chiayi City area, you can use apps to hail a cab from 55688 Taiwan Taxi, and if you cannot hail a cab on the street, you can also consider calling taxi fleets, such as 嘉義幸福車隊, 嘉義三山&宏陽計程車 to try to book a ride. Based on the meter, the estimated fare is between NT$2,895 and 3,500, but you could save up to NT$1,000 by booking with Tripool instead. However, when considering the return trip, in Pingtung County there are only about 370 licensed taxis. This is about 70% of the number of taxis in Chiayi City, and its density is just 0.3% of the Taipei/New Taipei metro area, making it 310 times more difficult to hail a cab there. Considering all factors, Tripool is your best choice for traveling from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office in terms of both price and service quality.

Question 4

Will tripool provide a receipt for my booking? Can I use it for employee expense reimbursement?

Accepted Answer

Tripool will send a receipt through the third-party system one week after the ride. If passengers need to claim reimbursement for travel expenses, there is a blank to fill with the company's title and tax ID. It's legal, and there is no extra 5% for the receipt. Once the receipt is received via email, it can be printed out for reimbursement or saved as a PDF.

Question 5

Do tripool and the drivers provide legal car-hiring services in Chiayi City and Pingtung County?

Accepted Answer

There are many gypsy cabs or illegal taxis in Line and Facebook groups. Their fares are cheap but with many risks. If the cabs are pulled over by polices, passengers cannot continue the trip. If there is an accident, none of the insurance companies will settle a claim. Worst of all, illegal drivers may conduct crimes without any trace. Don't put your life at risk for just saving a few bucks. On the other hand, tripool contracts with legal drivers without any criminal record. All vehicles provide up to $5 million in insurance. The easiest way to distinguish a legal vehicle is the car plate number. Unless the initial character of the car plate number is either T or R, the car is 100% illegal for taxi service.

Question 6

How can I make sure the driver will pick me up? What if the driver doesn't show up?

Accepted Answer

Once the booking process is completed and getting an order ID, the reservation is confirmed. Tripool promises a private car will pick passengers up on time. All the essential information, such as the driver's name, mobile number, car model, and car plate number, will be sent via SMS and email. If the driver is not at the pick-up location, passengers can contact the driver via mobile phone. The driver may be away due to a lack of parking space and waiting nearby. Suppose there is some serious emergency or traffic jam to delay the trip. In that case, tripool will rearrange a driver to reduce passengers' waiting time.

Question 7

Can I add a stop location between traveling from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office?

Accepted Answer

Passengers can request additional stops for a ride from Wenya Elementary School to Dongliu Line Ferry Joint Office. Every 5 km of additional distance for a stop charges NT$200, whether it is along the way or not. It's necessary for the driver's extra time.

Question 8

What type of vehicle should I book for a group of more than 9?

Accepted Answer

Some drivers in Line and Facebook groups claim that they can offer private transportation services with a group of more than 8 in a single van, but their services are illegal. According to Taiwan traffic laws, a van can only accommodate nine people maximum, including a driver. Excluding a driver, the maximum number of passengers is 8. If your group is 9 or more and you prefer to travel together in one vehicle, a bus is the only legal option. Some 9-seater van drivers modify their cars and add one or two extra chairs. If these modified vans are detected by the polices on the street, your trip will be terminated immediately. Worst of all, there are additional risks for accidents. And insurance is definitely not covering it. Don't risk your family's and friends' life for a lower price. If your group is no more than 10, we recommend hiring a 9-seater van and a 5-seater sedan. It is cheaper than booking a bus on most occasions. But if your group is more than 12, hiring a bus may be ideal. However, there are few exceptions, such as traveling to mountain areas or narrow lanes. It is better to consult our online service before booking.
