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 Hawthorn you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 47 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 6:10am.
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.
Hawthorn to Melbourne Airport, Start to Finish
The run from Hawthorn covers 33.3 km and takes about 31 minutes in ordinary traffic, closer to 47 in peak hour.
The 33.3 km route from Hawthorn uses CityLink 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.

How the Hawthorn Fare Is Worked Out
Every part of the Hawthorn fare is visible: day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (33.3 km at $2.10 per km) $69.93 and toll $13.32 by day. That is a typical $89, shown as $84 – $103 to account for your pickup point and the route on the day. 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. A standard taxi from Hawthorn is typically $89 by day, $97 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $107 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.
Carrying extra luggage, take the SUV at a typical $107 (estimate $101 – $124). It seats four with room for 4 large and 3 small bags. For a group of five to eleven, the maxi from Hawthorn carries the same $17.80 surcharge, so it is the same $101 – $124. 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.
Airport to Hawthorn
For the inbound trip to Hawthorn, add the airport's own $5.26 pickup fee to the fare above. Everything else is identical, including the 31 minute drive. Give us the flight number and we adjust to the actual 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.
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.

I’ve used Deep a few times now for airport transfers from Mount Waverley and he has been consistently excellent. Always punctual, professional, and the rides are smooth and comfortable. It’s reassuring to have someone reliable, especially for early or late airport runs. Highly recommend Deep if you’re looking for dependable service.
I have used this service a few times now and love having the freedom to work or just relax instead of drive in such beautiful cars with super friendly, organised and helpful drivers 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

Great taxi ride from Melbourne Airport to home! Friendly driver, clean car, smooth trip. Highly recommend! Thanks
Fantastic service for our early morning 3:30am airport transfer from Wyndham Vale. The communication was clear and professional from the time of booking, which gave us great peace of mind. The driver arrived right on time, making the whole experience stress-free. Our return airport pickup was equally smooth—no waiting at all, the driver was already there and ready. Highly reliable and efficient service. Would definitely recommend for anyone needing punctual and hassle-free airport transfers! Thanks
