The journey

What the Trip Looks Like

About 30 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 45 minutes in peak hour.

  • Pickup in Glen Iris Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
  • CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway The first leg out of Glen Iris.
  • Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 30 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 Glen Iris you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 45 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 6:15am.

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 Glen Iris Involves

Glen Iris to the terminal is 36.5 km of driving, normally about 30 minutes and nearer 45 in peak hour.

Your driver will use CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway. That adds roughly $13.19 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 Malvern East 3145, Malvern 3144 and Camberwell 3124, those areas have their own pages with their own estimated fares.

We cover all of Glen Iris 3146, 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 Glen Iris fare is visible: day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (36.5 km at $2.10 per km) $76.65 and toll $13.19 by day. That is a typical $96, shown as $91 – $111 to account for your pickup point and the route on the day.

Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Glen Iris is typically $96 by day, $104 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $115 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 Glen Iris is $108 – $132, which is the standard taxi fare plus the $17.80 high occupancy surcharge. The maxi is $108 – $132 for up to eleven passengers. Travelling with young children? A baby seat is $40 per seat, fitted before your driver arrives, so tell us the age and weight of each child when you book.

The Trip in the Other Direction

Landing at Tullamarine and heading for Glen Iris works the same way in reverse. Same distance, same rate, plus the $5.26 pickup fee the airport levies on every trip that starts there. Flight tracking is included, so a late arrival does not become a waiting charge.

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.

Add meet and greet for $35 and your driver is waiting inside the arrivals hall with your name on a sign, with an hour of waiting built in.

I recently used a taxi service for a trip from Tarneit to Melbourne Airport, and overall, it was a smooth and stress-free experience. The taxi arrived on time, which is critical when catching a flight. The driver even sent a confirmation text before arrival, which added peace of mind. Great Service 👍👍
