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 Bentleigh East you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 65 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 5:55am.
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.
What the Trip from Bentleigh East Involves
From Bentleigh East, Melbourne Airport is 47.1 km away. Budget 43 minutes off peak and up to 65 when the freeways are busy.
Your driver will use Warrigal Road, Monash Freeway (M1) and CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway. That adds roughly $13.32 in tolls, which sits inside the estimated fare. We do not hand you a separate toll charge at the end of the trip.
We also cover Moorabbin 3189, Murrumbeena 3163 and Hampton East 3188 on the same pricing basis, so if you are picking up passengers on the way it is worth checking those pages too.
We cover all of Bentleigh East 3165, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
Where the Number Comes from
Every part of the Bentleigh East fare is visible: day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (47.1 km at $2.10 per km) $98.91 and toll $13.32 by day. That is a typical $118, shown as $112 – $136 to account for your pickup point and the route on the day. 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 Bentleigh East is typically $118 by day, $129 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $142 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.
An SUV from Bentleigh East is typically $136 (estimate $129 – $157): the standard fare plus a $17.80 high occupancy surcharge. It seats four, like a sedan, with room for 4 large and 3 small bags. For five or more passengers take the maxi, which seats up to eleven and carries the same $17.80 surcharge, so it is also typically $136 (estimate $129 – $157). 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.
Coming Back to Bentleigh East from the Airport
Arriving rather than departing, the Bentleigh East 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.
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.

Travelled from Melbourne Eastern Suburbs to Airport with this outstanding company. From the moment of my online booking to the time of arrival at each end, the communication was clear, the customer service was top notch and the ride was smooth. Easy to find and coordinate at the airport for pick up (always my concern with pre-booking taxi service). Staff were ALL friendly and professional. Cannot recommend this company enough.
