What the Trip Looks Like

- Pickup in Rockbank Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.

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 Rockbank you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 39 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 6:20am.
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.
Rockbank to Melbourne Airport, Start to Finish
Rockbank to the terminal is 34.4 km of driving, normally about 26 minutes and nearer 39 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 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.
What Makes Up the Rockbank Price
The Rockbank estimate is not guesswork. By day it is day rate flag fall $5.40 and distance (34.4 km at $2.10 per km) $72.24, which totals $78. We show it as $74 – $90 because the exact street you are picked up from, and the route on the day, move the distance slightly. 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. A standard taxi from Rockbank is typically $78 by day, $86 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $96 on a Friday or Saturday night after 10pm or a public holiday. Your estimate uses the rate for the time you choose when you book. For a fixed price, call or email us and we will agree the fare before you travel.
Carrying extra luggage, take the SUV at a typical $96 (estimate $91 – $111). It seats four with room for 4 large and 3 small bags. For a group of five to eleven, the maxi from Rockbank carries the same $17.80 surcharge, so it is the same $91 – $111. 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.
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.
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 is optional and costs $35. Worth it on a long haul arrival, less so if you travel light and know the terminal.

Best taxi service in Tarneit. Great service every time. No matter what time you book, you will get instant response each time. Great job Deep🤙
Great work guys. Very professional team work. Drivers are very professional and courteous. Highly recommend to all👍
Always great to see Deep wave and smile when I have made a booking. His car is immaculate and makes for a smooth, comfortable and hassle-free arrival. I highly recommend this service.
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.
I travel almost weekly for work to and from the Airport to Hawthorn East. I have been using this company now (Prabh, Sherry, Deep and co) for well over a year and never once had a bad or even average experience, they are always so responsive, professional and just great guys in general! Several times I have needed a car (or 2 for work colleagues from SYD) at very short notice and they have arrived within minutes with immediate confirmation as always. On top of that their cars are always spotless and very comfortable. I recommend all my work colleagues from Sydney to use this company and they are equally as impressed. Out of the 100 lifts their service has been flawless. Don’t use anyone else in Melbourne!
Recently used this taxi service to Melbourne airport and it was super fantastic and very professional. Arrived on time, great service, beautiful taxi and made my trip to airport easier. Highly recommend to all👍👍👍
Exceptional service. Always on time, and booking is a breeze, Communication is fantastic. I’m told exactly what car (make, model and rego) will be picking me up and from where, very handy especially for airport travel. Everyone is so friendly and polite and the vehicles are immaculate. Highly recommend.
Great Service every time you book. Very punctual, premium taxis but very affordable prices. Highly recommended 👌
I’ve been using this company for over a year now for any work trip I have to take, and will continue to do so. Always on time, great communication via text, the cars are always beautifully clean and usually more luxurious than an uber, the drivers are always polite and friendly and also drive safely. Highly recommend.
I’ve used their taxi services twice for airport transfers and am happy with the communication, price and comfort. I’d definitely engage them again.
