Flying out early?
For a morning departure from Brighton, allow an extra thirty minutes on top of the drive time for check in and security. We run 24 hours, so a 3am pickup costs exactly the same as a 3pm one.
Your airport run from Brighton
The run from Brighton covers 36 km and takes about 40 minutes in ordinary traffic. Your estimated fare is around $88 – $107 in a standard taxi or SUV.
In peak hour the same trip can stretch closer to 60 minutes. That changes when you should leave. It does not change what you pay.
How early to book your Brighton pickup
Working backwards from a domestic departure, three hours is a comfortable buffer from Brighton, or one more hour if you are flying international. The drive itself is 40 minutes.
We run 24 hours, and a 3am pickup is everyday work. It uses the evening and overnight rate, which is in your quote before you book, so you can weigh an early flight against a later one with real numbers.
If you need more room
An SUV from Brighton costs the same $88 – $107 as a standard taxi, so if you are carrying extra bags or want more room, take it at no extra cost. A maxi seating up to eleven is $105 – $128.
We also cover Hampton 3188, Bayside and Elsternwick 3185 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 Brighton 3186, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
Which way the trip runs
Your driver will use New St/State Route 25, Nepean Hwy/State Route 25/State Route 3Co and Citylink/M2. That adds roughly $11.50 in tolls, which sits inside the quoted fare. We do not hand you a separate toll charge at the end of the trip.
Airport to Brighton
Landing at Tullamarine and heading for Brighton works the same way in reverse. Same distance, same rate, plus the $5.26 pickup fee the airport levies on every vehicle leaving the rank. Flight tracking is included, so a late arrival does not become a waiting charge.
How the Brighton fare is worked out
Adding it up from Brighton: day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (36 km at $2.10 per km) $75.60 and toll $11.50. Total $93. The published range of $88 – $107 covers the small variation between one pickup address and another.
For an arrival with luggage or children, meet and greet at $35 is usually worth it: your driver is inside the terminal rather than at the kerb.
