The journey

What the trip looks like

About 48 minutes in normal traffic, or closer to 72 minutes in peak hour.

  • Pickup in Wantirna Door to door, at the time you booked. Your driver calls on arrival.

  • Citylink/M2 Tolls on this stretch are already inside your fare.
  • Melbourne Airport terminal Dropped at your terminal door, about 48 minutes after pickup.

Flying out early?

For a morning departure from Wantirna, allow an extra hour 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 Wantirna to Melbourne Airport

At 65.5 km, Wantirna is a longer airport run: roughly 48 minutes on a clear road, closer to 72 in peak hour. The estimated fare is around $152 – $184, tolls included.

Over this distance a metered fare becomes genuinely unpredictable, because every slow patch adds to it. This is where an upfront price is worth the most.

How early to book your Wantirna pickup

For a domestic flight, allow three and a half hours between leaving Wantirna and departure. Add an hour for international. That covers the 48 minute drive plus check in, bag drop and security.

Early departures are routine for us. The overnight rate applies from 5pm to 9am and is shown in your quote, so the price you book is the price you pay.

Groups and larger vehicles

There is no premium for the SUV: it is the same $152 – $184 as a standard taxi from Wantirna. Only the maxi differs, at $168 – $204 for up to eleven passengers.

We also cover Vermont 3133, Bayswater 3153 and Ringwood 3134 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 Wantirna 3152, 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

Your driver will use Eastlink/M3, Monash Fwy/M1 and Citylink/M2. That adds roughly $16.24 in tolls, which sits inside the quoted fare. We do not hand you a separate toll charge at the end of the trip.

Coming back to Wantirna from the airport

Arriving rather than departing, the Wantirna run is priced the same with the $5.26 airport pickup fee on top. We watch the flight, so if you are held up in the air or at the carousel your driver is still there.

What makes up the Wantirna price

Broken down, a Wantirna airport trip is day rate flag fall $5.40, distance (65.5 km at $2.10 per km) $137.55 and toll $16.24. $160 all up. The $152 – $184 you see quoted is that number with a small allowance either side.

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.

Highly professional service from start to finish. I cannot recommend Deep and his excellent team of drivers highly enough. We loved our journey to and from the Yarra Valley - the communication was clear and timely, the car was immaculate and our driver was amazing. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
