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 $166 – $202, 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 hours carry no surcharge, so the time on your booking makes no difference to the price.
Groups and larger vehicles
There is no premium for the SUV: it is the same $166 – $202 as a standard taxi from Wantirna. Only the maxi differs, at $183 – $222 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 flag fall $5.25, distance (65.5 km at $2.34 per km) $153.27 and toll $16.24. $175 all up. The $166 – $202 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.

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.
