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 Sandringham you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 68 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 5:50am.
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.

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.
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 by day. That is a typical $103, shown as $97 – $119 to account for your pickup point and the route on the day.
Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Sandringham is typically $103 by day, $113 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $124 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.
An SUV from Sandringham is $114 – $140, the standard fare plus a $17.80 surcharge, and worth it if you are carrying extra bags or want more legroom. A maxi seating up to eleven is $114 – $140. Travelling with young children? A baby seat is $40 per seat, fitted before your driver arrives, so tell us the age and weight of each child when you book.
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.
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.
If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign than find your driver outside, meet and greet is $35 and covers an hour of waiting.
