Your airport run from St Kilda
From St Kilda, Melbourne Airport is 30.1 km away. Budget 30 minutes off peak, and expect to pay around $83 – $102.
Traffic can push this out to about 45 minutes at the wrong time of day, which is worth planning around even though it will not affect your fare.
Working out your pickup time
For a domestic flight, allow three hours between leaving St Kilda and departure. Add an hour for international. That covers the 30 minute drive plus check in, bag drop and security.
We run 24 hours and there is no night rate. A 3am pickup costs the same as a 3pm one, which is worth knowing when you are weighing an early flight against a convenient one.
If you need more room
An SUV from St Kilda costs the same $83 – $102 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 $99 – $121.
Nearby areas including Windsor 3181, St Kilda East 3183 and Elwood 3184 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.
We cover all of St Kilda 3182, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
The road we take from St Kilda
The usual way from St Kilda is Citylink/M2. There is roughly $11.50 of tolls on that route, included in your quoted price before you book. On a run of 30.1 km the alternative free route costs more in time than the toll costs in money.
Airport to St Kilda
Flying into Melbourne and heading to St Kilda costs the same as the trip out, plus the $5.26 airport pickup fee the airport charges on every departure from the rank. We track your flight at no extra cost, so you are collected when you actually land.
What makes up the St Kilda price
Nothing about the St Kilda fare is a zone rate. It is flag fall $5.25, distance (30.1 km at $2.34 per km) $70.43 and toll $11.50, totalling $88, which is why the figure quoted is $83 – $102 rather than a round number.
Meet and greet, where your driver waits inside with a sign and helps with the bags, is $35 and includes up to an hour of waiting time.

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.
