According to local media, this solution has become the most visible outcome of negotiations on tariff for the next year, caused a storm of controversy among the sector and divided them into two camps. The existence of an additional payment for carriage of luggage often leads to abuse on the part of the drivers - so some of them felt laptop bag pieces of luggage and passengers forced to pay for it.

Tariff schedule for 2015 also includes the establishment of a single price for the trip between the port of Barcelona El Prat airport in the amount of 39 euros. However, the question of a single fare between the city center and its air gates remained unresolved, mainly because of technical difficulties that linked his introduction: many taxi drivers would have to change the counters, it's about spending thousands of euros.

The fare next year will rise by only 0.6%, while the price per shift plate "freedom" to "Busy" will remain unchanged. Additional fees, for example, to enter the territory Sants Station or the fairgrounds Fira de Barcelona, will remain unchanged. In turn, the extra charge for entry to the zone of El Prat and port decline slightly, and passengers, the route which begins or ends in the French Nord train station and the station no longer have to pay extra fees. Meanwhile, the cost of travel in the seven-seater increase.

The above measure on baggage, not yet officially adopted - next week it will be put to a vote in the Council of the City taxi, then the initiative will review the Regional Commission for the price. Apparently, the majority of the passenger traffic sector will vote "yes", as the proposal received from the Technical Committee of the taxi, traditionally representing their interests.
