At 61.5 km, Chelsea Heights is a longer airport run: roughly 55 minutes on a clear road, closer to 83 in peak hour. The estimated fare is around $140 – $171, tolls included.
Over this distance a metered fare becomes genuinely unpredictable, because every slow patch adds to it. This is where an upfront price is worth the most.
When to leave Chelsea Heights

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 Chelsea Heights is $157 – $191, 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 $157 – $191.
Nearby areas including Patterson Lakes 3197, Aspendale Gardens 3195 and Bangholme 3175 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.

The road we take from Chelsea Heights
Expect to travel via Mornington Peninsula Fwy/M11, Dingley Bypass/State Route 14/State Route and Warrigal Rd/State Route 15. Tolls on this route come to about $13.19 and are built into the fare, so the figure you are quoted is the figure you pay.
Coming back to Chelsea Heights from the airport
The return runs the same 61.5 km and the same estimated fare, with one difference: a $5.26 airport pickup fee set by the airport itself, which every operator charges. Give us your flight number and we watch the arrival time, so a delay moves your pickup rather than costing you waiting time.
Where the number comes from
The Chelsea Heights estimate is not guesswork. It is day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (61.5 km at $2.10 per km) $129.15 and toll $13.19, which totals $148. We publish it as $140 – $171 because the exact street you are picked up from moves the distance slightly.
Meet and greet, where your driver waits inside with a sign and helps with the bags, is $35 and includes up to an hour of waiting time.
