What the trip from Sandringham involves
The run from Sandringham covers 40.8 km and takes about 45 minutes in ordinary traffic. Your estimated fare is around $97 – $119 in a standard taxi or SUV.
In peak hour the same trip can stretch closer to 68 minutes. That changes when you should leave. It does not change what you pay.
Working out your pickup time
Working backwards from a domestic departure, three hours is a comfortable buffer from Sandringham, or one more hour if you are flying international. The drive itself is 45 minutes.
We run 24 hours, and a 3am pickup is everyday work. It uses the evening and overnight rate, which is in your quote before you book, so you can weigh an early flight against a later one with real numbers.
Travelling with a group
An SUV from Sandringham costs the same $97 – $119 as a standard taxi, so if you are carrying extra bags or want more room, take it at no extra cost. A maxi seating up to eleven is $114 – $140.
We also cover Hampton 3188, Bayside and Hampton East 3188 on the same pricing basis, so if you are picking up passengers on the way it is worth checking those pages too.
We cover all of Sandringham 3191, 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
Expect to travel via Beach Rd/State Route 33 and Citylink/M2. Tolls on this route come to about $11.50 and are built into the fare, so the figure you are quoted is the figure you pay.
The trip in the other direction
For the inbound trip to Sandringham, add the airport's own $5.26 pickup fee to the fare above. Everything else is identical, including the 45 minute drive. Give us the flight number and we adjust to the actual landing time.
Where the number comes from
Every part of the Sandringham fare is visible: day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (40.8 km at $2.10 per km) $85.68 and toll $11.50. That is $103, shown as $97 – $119 to account for your pickup point and the route on the day.
If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign than find the rank, meet and greet is $35 and covers an hour of waiting.
