The journey

What the Trip Looks Like

About 40 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 60 minutes in peak hour.

  • Pickup in Surrey Hills Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.
  • Canterbury Road The first leg out of Surrey Hills.
  • CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway Tolls on this stretch are already inside your fare estimate.
  • Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 40 minutes after pickup.

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 Surrey Hills you want to be at the terminal by 7am; allowing 60 minutes for morning peak traffic, book a pickup for about 6am.

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.

Getting from Surrey Hills to Melbourne Airport

Surrey Hills to the terminal is 41.1 km of driving, normally about 40 minutes and nearer 60 in peak hour.

This one runs via Canterbury Road and CityLink to the Tullamarine Freeway. The $13.19 in tolls is a real cost we pass on at cost, not a rounded surcharge, and it is already counted in the estimate.

Nearby areas including Balwyn 3103, Box Hill 3128 and Camberwell 3124 are priced the same way, with their own fares listed on this site.

We cover all of Surrey Hills 3127, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.

What Makes Up the Surrey Hills Price

Adding it up from Surrey Hills by day: day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (41.1 km at $2.10 per km) $86.31 and toll $13.19. Typical total $105. The estimate of $99 – $121 covers the variation between one pickup address and another and the route on the day.

Your pickup time sets the rate. A standard taxi from Surrey Hills is typically $105 by day, $115 for a pickup between 5pm and 9am, and $126 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 $116 – $142. For a group of up to eleven, the maxi from Surrey Hills is $116 – $142. 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.

Coming Back to Surrey Hills from the Airport

The return runs the same 41.1 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.

If someone is being collected who would rather not navigate the terminal alone, meet and greet at $35 puts the driver inside with them.

Very professional service I know when I initiate the very first contact with my travel requirements- I can trust that everything is arranged and booked. From the moment I get picked up from home to the airport and back again, I get regular update messages of who will be my driver and what car it will be- so no mix ups. The drivers are so friendly and polite. Highly recommend this service team. 5 stars!!

I recently used a taxi service for a trip from Tarneit to Melbourne Airport, and overall, it was a smooth and stress-free experience. The taxi arrived on time, which is critical when catching a flight. The driver even sent a confirmation text before arrival, which added peace of mind. Great Service 👍👍
