Your airport run from Ringwood
Ringwood to the terminal is 49.3 km of driving, normally about 50 minutes. The price is estimated at $114 – $140 before you travel.
Traffic can push this out to about 75 minutes at the wrong time of day, which is worth planning around even though it will not affect your fare.
When to leave Ringwood
Most passengers leaving Ringwood give themselves three hours for a domestic flight. International needs another hour on top. The drive accounts for 50 minutes of that.
There is no late night loading and no early morning premium. The fare is the same at 4am as it is at midday.

There is no premium for the SUV: it is the same $114 – $140 as a standard taxi from Ringwood. Only the maxi differs, at $132 – $160 for up to eleven passengers.
If your pickup is closer to Mitcham 3132, Wantirna 3152 and Vermont 3133, those areas have their own pages with their own estimated fares.
We cover all of Ringwood 3134, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
The route, and what it costs to use it
Drivers take Eastlink/M3, Springvale Rd/State Route 40 and Reynolds Rd/State Route 52 for this run, and there is no toll on that route. It is worth knowing, because a 49.3 km airport trip from this side of Melbourne often comes in lower than people expect for exactly that reason.
The trip in the other direction
Back to Ringwood is the same 49.3 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.
What makes up the Ringwood price
Broken down, a Ringwood airport trip is flag fall $5.25 and distance (49.3 km at $2.34 per km) $115.36. $121 all up. The $114 – $140 you see quoted is that number with a small allowance either side.
Add meet and greet for $35 and your driver is waiting airside of the exit with your name on a sign, with an hour of waiting built in.

Travelled from Melbourne Eastern Suburbs to Airport with this outstanding company. From the moment of my online booking to the time of arrival at each end, the communication was clear, the customer service was top notch and the ride was smooth. Easy to find and coordinate at the airport for pick up (always my concern with pre-booking taxi service). Staff were ALL friendly and professional. Cannot recommend this company enough.
