The journey

What the Trip Looks Like

About 59 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 89 minutes in peak hour.

  • Pickup in Skye Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
  • Ballarto Road The first leg out of Skye.
  • Western Port Highway (M780) The main run in, covering most of the 77.6 km.
  • Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 59 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 Skye you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 89 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 5:30am.

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.

What the Trip from Skye Involves

Expect 59 minutes or so from Skye, and up to 89 if you are travelling through peak. It is 77.6 km door to terminal.

Your driver will use Ballarto Road and Western Port Highway (A7). That adds roughly $19.85 in tolls, which sits inside the estimated fare. We do not hand you a separate toll charge at the end of the trip.

If your pickup is closer to Carrum Downs 3201, Langwarrin 3910 and Frankston North 3200, those areas have their own pages with their own estimated fares.

We cover all of Skye 3977, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.

What Makes Up the Skye Price

Nothing about the Skye fare is a zone rate. By day it is day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (77.6 km at $2.10 per km) $162.96 and toll $19.85, a typical total of $189. It is shown as $179 – $218 because your street and the traffic on the day can move the distance a little either way. The typical total is the sum above rounded up to the next whole dollar, and the estimate runs from 5% under it to 15% over it, the same rule for every vehicle. A different pickup street, a detour or roadworks on the day, waiting time and extras such as a baby seat are what move a fare inside that estimate.

Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Skye is typically $189 by day, $206 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $226 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.

The SUV from Skye is typically $207, within an estimate of $196 – $239, which is the standard taxi fare plus the $17.80 high occupancy surcharge. It still seats four, and the gain is luggage: 4 large and 3 small bags. The maxi seats up to eleven and carries the same surcharge, which is why it is the same $196 – $239. Travelling with young children? A baby seat is $40 per seat, per trip, fitted before your driver arrives, so tell us the age and weight of each child when you book.

Airport to Skye

Back to Skye is the same 77.6 km journey. The only addition is the $5.26 airport pickup fee, which is the airport's charge rather than ours. Add your flight number when you book and your driver works to the real 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.

Meet and greet is optional and costs $35. Worth it on a long haul arrival, less so if you travel light and know the terminal.
