What the Trip Looks Like
About 31 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 47 minutes in peak hour.
- Pickup in Melton Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
- Western Freeway (M8) The first leg out of Melton.
- Western Ring Road (M80) The main run in, covering most of the 42 km.
- Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 31 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 Melton 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.
Getting from Melton to Melbourne Airport
Melton to the terminal is 42 km of driving, normally about 31 minutes and nearer 47 in peak hour.
You will travel on Western Freeway (M8) and Western Ring Road (M80). No tolls apply on this route, so the fare is distance and flag fall only.
Nearby areas including Thornhill Park 3335, Plumpton 3335 and Aintree 3336 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.
Where the Number Comes from
The fare box above shows how the Melton 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 Melton is typically $112 (estimate $106 – $129): 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 $112 (estimate $106 – $129). 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.
The Trip in the Other Direction
Arriving rather than departing, the Melton run is priced the same with the $5.26 airport pickup fee on top. We watch the flight, so if you are held up in the air or at the carousel your driver is still there.
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.

Our experience with Taxi to Melbourne Airport was a great experience on several occasions whilst visiting Melbourne. Short or long trips and on short notice was not a problem. Like a private chauffeur service, nice, clean cars and drivers are very friendly and professional. Thank you Deep for your fantastic service getting us around.
Have been using Deep's taxi service for years now from Malvern to Airport and Back to home from Airport. Amazing service, clean taxis and professional drivers. Highly recommended to all.
Burwood to Airport return I always have excellent service from Prahb and Sherry’s team. They are friendly and reliable service, especially early morning trips. I don't have to worry about services cancelling like some ride sharing services. The cars they use are always impeccable clean and the ride is comfortable. I highly recommend them if you are a corporate traveller like me, who travel in some ungodly hours and don't want the hassle.
It was great to experience courtesy and service when we took this taxie. Thank you. Basil N Varghese
This is the second time now I have used the service and it is outstanding from the minute you book to the time they pick you up. Drop you off and collect you again and bring you home. They look after everything. They let you know that they’re tracking your flights They’ll let you know where there will be. The Cars are in fantastic condition and Smell nice. You feel like you have your own private drivers collecting you. it’s a very special feeling I would highly recommend them to anyone that’s looking for a ride to and from the airport or just to the city for a function don’t hesitate. The pricing is fair. The cars are great.
