Flying out early?
For a morning departure from Kew, allow an extra thirty minutes on top of the drive time for check in and security. We run 24 hours, so a 3am pickup costs exactly the same as a 3pm one.
Your airport run from Kew
Kew to the terminal is 27.6 km of driving, normally about 31 minutes. The price is estimated at $64 – $79 before you travel.
Traffic can push this out to about 47 minutes at the wrong time of day, which is worth planning around even though it will not affect your fare.
When to leave Kew
Most passengers leaving Kew give themselves three hours for a domestic flight. International needs another hour on top. The drive accounts for 31 minutes of that.
Early starts are routine here. Your pickup time sets the rate, day, evening or weekend night, and the fare is fixed the moment you book.
Travelling with a group
The SUV from Kew is $81 – $99, which is the standard taxi fare plus the $17.80 high occupancy surcharge. The maxi is $81 – $99 for up to eleven passengers.
We also cover Hawthorn 3122, Hawthorn East 3123 and Richmond 3121 on the same pricing basis, so if you are picking up passengers on the way it is worth checking those pages too.
We cover all of Kew 3101, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
The trip in the other direction
Flying into Melbourne and heading to Kew costs the same as the trip out, plus the $5.26 airport pickup fee the airport charges on every departure from the rank. We track your flight at no extra cost, so you are collected when you actually land.
How the Kew fare is worked out
Nothing about the Kew fare is a zone rate. It is day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (27.6 km at $2.10 per km) $57.96 and toll $3.92, totalling $68, which is why the figure quoted is $64 – $79 rather than a round number.
If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign than find the rank, meet and greet is $35 and covers an hour of waiting.

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.
Cant recommend this taxi service and Deep highly enough. Great communication, reliable and great service. I always use them when I need a melbourne airport transfer from macedon ranges.
Best taxi service in Tarneit. Have been using Deep for while now and been very impressed with the quality of service and the cars. Very professional and high standards but fair price. Recommend to everyone 👍
Our driver, Deep, was friendly and punctual. He drove us to the Penguin Parade and even recommended us to stop by the chocolate factory since we had time, which was a bonus! The car was comfortable throughout the ride. Would definitely recommend and book again!
