Your airport run from Ballarat
At 111.5 km, Ballarat is well outside metropolitan Melbourne. We run it daily, around 75 minutes each way, for an estimated $228 – $276.
Country runs are usually where quoting gets vague. Ours is a number on the page, the same one you pay at the end.
Working out your pickup time
Working backwards from a domestic departure, four hours is a comfortable buffer from Ballarat, or one more hour if you are flying international. The drive itself is 75 minutes.
Early departures are routine for us. The overnight rate applies from 5pm to 9am and is shown in your quote, so the price you book is the price you pay.
If you need more room
An SUV from Ballarat is $245 – $297, the standard fare plus a $17.80 surcharge, and worth it if you are carrying extra bags or want more legroom. A maxi seating up to eleven is $245 – $297.
Nearby areas including Maddingley 3340, Darley 3340 and Bacchus Marsh 3340 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.
We cover all of Ballarat 3350, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
The route, and what it costs to use it
Drivers use National Highway M8 and Western Ring Rd/National Highway M80, a toll free route the whole way. Nothing is added to the 111.5 km fare for road charges.
Airport to Ballarat
Arriving rather than departing, the Ballarat run is priced the same with the $5.26 airport pickup fee on top. We watch the flight, so if you are held up in the air or at the carousel your driver is still there.
How the Ballarat fare is worked out
The Ballarat estimate is not guesswork. It is day rate flag fall $5.40 and distance (111.5 km at $2.10 per km) $234.15, which totals $240. We publish it as $228 – $276 because the exact street you are picked up from moves the distance slightly.
If someone is being collected who would rather not navigate the terminal alone, meet and greet at $35 puts the driver inside with them.
