Hi, This is great - thank you. Can I ask if there is a way to have dropdown options such as heathrow airport and for that to produce a fixed price?
I've put an option in for number of passengers as well as this effects the price. If there are more than 4 people or if it is between 11pm and 7am, there is a different rate. Is it possible to calculate based on these variables?
