The run from Avondale Heights
Count on 18 min and around 13 kilometres between Avondale Heights and the Tullamarine terminal.
You will pass through a toll on the way in. We have costed it at about $6 and included it, which is why the quoted $45 does not move on the day. You pay the driver at the end, with no deposit and nothing taken when you book.
Being this near the airport has one real advantage: a dawn departure does not cost you the night before it. For a 6am flight out of Avondale Heights we would be at your door around 3:27am, which still leaves a reasonable sleep.
Coming the other way we track the inbound flight and meet you when the aircraft actually lands, so a delay is the airline's problem rather than yours. The distance shown here is measured from the centre of the suburb, so your exact fare is confirmed against your pickup address when you book.
