adding this in case anyone comes back and reads this.... we have used ambassador brattle before, but i wouldn't actually recommend them. the only time we use cabs is to go from our house to the airport, usually if it's before the T is running. we have called to schedule pick up time and get a quote on the cost (flat rate, i guess).... twice the cab driver has tried to argue with us about the cost we were quoted and had to call back to the dispatch to confirm it. One guy even said, let's just run the meter and see. That same guy then took the most ciruitous round about, out of the way route to get to the airport. We ended up over in Belmont/Waltham, at one point. WTF. so, yeah, don't recommend them.
