Flying out early?
For a morning departure from Truganina, allow an extra thirty minutes on top of the drive time for check in and security. We run 24 hours, so a 3am pickup costs exactly the same as a 3pm one.
Getting from Truganina to Melbourne Airport
Truganina is 22.4 km away, so the drive is short: roughly 20 minutes when the roads are clear. The estimated fare is around $55 – $67.
On a trip this short the difference between a good run and a bad one is a few minutes of traffic. With an upfront price, that difference costs you nothing.
How early to book your Truganina pickup
Working backwards from a domestic departure, two and a half hours is a comfortable buffer from Truganina, or one more hour if you are flying international. The drive itself is 20 minutes.
There is no late night loading and no early morning premium. The fare is the same at 4am as it is at midday.
Groups and larger vehicles
There is no premium for the SUV: it is the same $55 – $67 as a standard taxi from Truganina. Only the maxi differs, at $72 – $88 for up to eleven passengers.
If your pickup is closer to Laverton North 3026, Williams Landing 3027 and Altona Meadows 3028, those areas have their own pages with their own estimated fares.
We cover all of Truganina 3029, including residential pickups, hotels and business addresses. Airport pickups back to the area are quoted the same way.
The road we take from Truganina
The usual way from Truganina is Palmers Rd/A91 and Western Ring Rd/National Highway M80. No toll road is involved, so nothing is added to your fare for road charges.
Coming back to Truganina from the airport
The return runs the same 22.4 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.
Where the number comes from
Nothing about the Truganina fare is a zone rate. It is flag fall $5.25 and distance (22.4 km at $2.34 per km) $52.42, totalling $58, which is why the figure quoted is $55 – $67 rather than a round number.
For an arrival with luggage or children, meet and greet at $35 is usually worth it: your driver is inside the terminal rather than at the kerb.

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.
