The journey

What the Trip Looks Like

About 53 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 80 minutes in peak hour.

  • Pickup in Harkaway Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
  • Monash Freeway (M1) The first leg out of Harkaway.
  • CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway Tolls on this stretch are already inside your fare estimate.
  • Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 53 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 Harkaway you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 80 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 5:40am.

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.

Getting from Harkaway to Melbourne Airport

Harkaway is 69.3 km away, which puts it among the longer transfers we run. Around 53 minutes normally, up to 80 at the wrong time of day.

The 69.3 km route from Harkaway uses Monash Freeway (M1) and CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway, with about $13.19 of tolls along the way. Both the distance and the toll are in the estimate before you confirm the booking.

Nearby areas including Berwick 3806, Narre Warren 3805 and Beaconsfield 3807 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.

We cover all of Harkaway 3806, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.

How the Harkaway Fare Is Worked Out

The Harkaway estimate is not guesswork. By day it is day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (69.3 km at $2.10 per km) $145.53 and toll $13.19, which totals $165. We show it as $156 – $190 because the exact street you are picked up from, and the route on the day, move the distance slightly.

Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Harkaway is typically $165 by day, $180 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $198 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 Harkaway is $172 – $210, 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 $172 – $210. 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.

Coming Back to Harkaway from the Airport

Back to Harkaway is the same 69.3 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.

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.
