A flagfall indicates a fixed starting fee. The usage originated from taxis where a flag would indicate if the taxi was occupied or not. Lowering the flag would start the taximeter from this fixed starting fee.

How does Auto rickshaw meter works?

The old Rickshaw meters were very simple mechanical devices. They were in essence a mileage indicator that calculate a cost per mile.

Melbourne Airport - Melbourne Brighton distance?

The distance is a little over 30 km and the time taken to drive there can be anything from 30 minutes to an hour factoring in traffic and peak times as you will need to bypass very close to the CBD. If you are getting there by public transport, there may be up to 3 commutes to take, the airbus or local airport shuttle service into the city, the local train or tram to or near Brighton and possibly a bus to your final destination. The cost of a taxi cab is up to approximately $65 including flagfall costs and bookings.
