- Pickup in Olinda Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
- Mount Dandenong Tourist Road (C415) The first leg out of Olinda.

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 Olinda you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 104 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 5:15am.
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.

The Trip in the Other Direction
For the inbound trip to Olinda, add the airport's own $5.26 pickup fee to the fare above. Everything else is identical, including the 69 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.
Add meet and greet for $35 and your driver is waiting inside the arrivals hall with your name on a sign, with an hour of waiting built in.

I recently used this taxi service from the western suburbs to Melbourne Airport and had a great experience. The driver was very helpful, especially with my child, which made the whole journey much less stressful. The car was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. He arrived before the scheduled time, and the airport drop-off was completely hassle free. The driver also drove very safely and smoothly throughout the trip. Highly recommend this service for anyone looking for a reliable and professional airport transfer.
