July 4th in Saint Augustine, Florida is a taxicab owner’s worst nightmare—but for drivers, it can be a goldmine. As fireworks light up the bayfront and tourists flood into the Ancient City, many suddenly realize: they really need a ride.

The fireworks show is truly spectacular, one of the best in the state. But once the grand finale ends, the streets turn into a maze of gridlock. Even the most seasoned local cab driver can find themselves trapped in a sea of taillights and tourists.

So this year, to better serve our beloved riders and totally avoid the traffic, Abraxi Taxi will be parking our vans and switching to our new Honda taxi-copter. Our pilots are fairly confident in their flying skills, and each vehicle is equipped with pontoons in case we need to splash down in the Matanzas River. Safety first!

As part of your VIP air taxi experience, you’ll enjoy:

• An open bar

• A complete buffet

• Party favors

• And a firm suggestion to wear extremely comfortable shoes

We’ll hover as close to your destination as possible before gently lowering you near your chosen bar, restaurant, or historic reenactment zone.

So if you’re stuck outside Meehan’s Irish Pub or sipping cocktails at the Tini Martini Bar, staring at a rideshare app that just won’t load—don’t panic. The Abraxi air team is just seconds away.

 For bookings, hover zones, grassy knoll landing pads, and rates, visit www.abraxitaxi.com or call 904-599-6666. Mr. Scott will be dispatching from our base, and if things get truly out of hand, we may activate the emergency transporter.

Scotty, beam them up. Saint Augustine traffic is off the grid—and I’m fresh out of dilithium crystals.

Please enjoy Independence Day in America’s oldest city. Bring patience, wear your walking shoes, and wherever possible, support your local cab company. And for the record:

Disclaimer: Abraxi Taxi currently owns zero helicopters, zero flying Ubers, and zero transporter rooms. But on July 4th… we wish we did.
