What the Trip Looks Like
About 122 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 183 minutes in peak hour.
- Pickup in Phillip Island Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
- Back Beach Road (C478) The first leg out of Phillip Island.
- Bass Highway (M420) The main run in, covering most of the 165 km.
- Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 122 minutes after pickup.
Working Out Your Pickup Time
Start from your departure time, take off two hours for a domestic flight or three for an international one, then take off the drive. For a 9am domestic flight from Phillip Island you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 183 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 3:55am.
We run 24 hours. Pickups between 5pm and 9am use the evening and overnight rate shown in the table, so an early start costs a little more than a midday one.
Your Airport Run from Phillip Island
Phillip Island is a regional transfer of 165 km, about 122 minutes each way.
Drivers take Back Beach Road (C478), Phillip Island Road (B420) and Bass Highway (M420) for this run. That route carries a toll of about $13.19, and it is already inside the estimate rather than added at the end. We use the toll road because on a 165 km trip the time it saves is worth more than the charge, particularly for an early flight.
If your pickup is closer to Crib Point 3919, Hastings 3915 and Mornington Peninsula, those areas have their own pages with their own estimated fares.
We cover all of Phillip Island 3922, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
What Makes Up the Phillip Island Price
Broken down, a Phillip Island airport trip by day is day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (165 km at $2.10 per km) $346.50 and toll $13.19. Typically $366 all up, within an estimate of $347 – $421 that allows for your pickup point and the route taken.
Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Phillip Island is typically $366 by day, $400 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $442 on a Friday or Saturday night after 10pm or a public holiday. Your estimate uses the rate for the time you choose when you book. For a fixed price, call or email us and we will agree the fare before you travel.
Carrying extra luggage, take the SUV at $363 – $441. For a group of up to eleven, the maxi from Phillip Island is $363 – $441. Travelling with young children? A baby seat is $40 per seat, fitted before your driver arrives, so tell us the age and weight of each child when you book.
The Trip in the Other Direction
For the inbound trip to Phillip Island, add the airport's own $5.26 pickup fee to the fare above. Everything else is identical, including the 122 minute drive. Give us the flight number and we adjust to the actual landing time.
Your driver collects you from the terminal your flight lands at: Terminal 1 for Qantas domestic, Terminal 2 for international flights, Terminal 3 for Virgin Australia and Terminal 4 for Jetstar and other low cost domestic airlines. Turn your phone on once you are off the plane and your driver confirms the meeting point. Bags on a domestic flight usually take 20 to 30 minutes, and an international arrival through customs takes longer, so book for your landing time and let the flight tracking do the rest.
If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign than find your driver outside, meet and greet is $35 and covers an hour of waiting.
