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 $13.32 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.

How the Harkaway Fare Is Worked Out
The fare box above shows how the Harkaway price is built: flag fall, the distance and any toll, added up and rounded to the typical total. Nothing about it is a zone rate. 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, as the table by pickup time above shows, and your estimate uses the rate for the time you choose when you book. For a fixed price, call or email us and we will confirm it before your trip. No surge, no meter, no surprises.
An SUV from Harkaway is typically $183 (estimate $173 – $211): 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 $183 (estimate $173 – $211). 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 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.
