The journey

What the trip looks like

  • National Highway M8 The first leg out of Rockbank 3335.

Flying out early?

For a morning departure from Rockbank, 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.

Rockbank to Melbourne Airport, start to finish

Rockbank to the terminal is 34.4 km of driving, normally about 26 minutes. The price is estimated at $74 – $90 before you travel.

Traffic can push this out to about 39 minutes at the wrong time of day, which is worth planning around even though it will not affect your fare.

When to leave Rockbank

Working backwards from a domestic departure, three hours is a comfortable buffer from Rockbank, or one more hour if you are flying international. The drive itself is 26 minutes.

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.

If you need more room

Carrying extra luggage, take the SUV at $91 – $111. For a group of up to eleven, the maxi from Rockbank is $91 – $111.

Nearby areas including Aintree 3336, Thornhill Park 3335 and Fraser Rise 3336 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.

We cover all of Rockbank 3335, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.

The road we take from Rockbank

You will travel on National Highway M8 and Western Ring Rd/National Highway M80. No tolls apply on this route, so the fare is distance and flag fall only.

Airport to Rockbank

The return runs the same 34.4 km and the same estimated fare, with one difference: a $5.26 airport pickup fee set by the airport itself, which every operator charges. Give us your flight number and we watch the arrival time, so a delay moves your pickup rather than costing you waiting time.

What makes up the Rockbank price

The Rockbank estimate is not guesswork. It is day rate flag fall $5.40 and distance (34.4 km at $2.10 per km) $72.24, which totals $78. We publish it as $74 – $90 because the exact street you are picked up from moves the distance slightly.

Meet and greet is optional and costs $35. Worth it on a long haul arrival, less so if you travel light and know the pickup area.

Lorna Beegan 1 Mar 2025
I frequently take a taxi to & from Melbourne Airport. I always use the same driver service. They offer exceptional service: always on time, very polite & well dressed, and their cars are luxury. Nothing is ever to much trouble. You feel safe & travel in style, what more could you ask for. I'd give 10 stars if I could.
