How much should I charge to drive someone around?
16-20 cents per mile is normal. However, many employers will allow you to choose between mileage driven or the dollar amount of gas bought (with a receipt). This is because many people have cars that use a lot of gas, and the mileage rates might be less than the amount of gas you actually used.
How much should you pay people for gas?
Depending on the state you’re in gas prices may vary, but really the cost of the gas is minimal, like $1 probably. Time is more valuable though and at the barest minimum you should give them $5. I think $10 since it’s also wear on their car.
How do you pick someone up from the airport?
If you plan to meet them inside the airport, park in short-term parking and wait outside of their terminal. Alternatively, meet them curbside if you don’t want to go inside the airport. If you aren’t able to pick your traveler up, you can schedule a ride to be ready for your arriving party when they land.
When is it appropriate to give gas money for a ride?

Should you be paying someone to drive you to the airport?
You Should Be Paying Someone to Drive You to the Airport in Your Own Car! Several new apps allow users to order a driver to ferry them to transit hubs in their own cars, drop them off, then return their vehicles home—all for less than the price of an Uber. Off-site airport parking is broken.
What does it mean when someone gives you gas money?
Whether they are driving you a long way (like on a road trip), or if they went out of their way to help you (drove to get you, and then drove you right back to where they were), or if this is the third ride in two days that you’re getting, gas money shows that you appreciate the time, money, and effort that they have invested in you.
Are You a commercial driver if you only charge for gas?
If you’re only charging what might be a reasonable share for gas, wear and tear, I can’t see you having a problem. However, if you’re giving a ride for money to someone you have no connection to and to a destination of their choice, then you’re a commercial driver.
