The run from Brighton East
Brighton East sits south east of Melbourne Airport. Allow about 37 min for the drive and 41 kilometres on the odometer.
The trip crosses a tolled section, roughly $6 worth. That is already inside the $110 you are quoted rather than appearing afterwards as a surprise line. You pay the driver at the end, with no deposit and nothing taken when you book.
For a 6am flight the pickup lands around 3:08am, working back from two hours at the terminal plus the drive. Later departures are easier again, and we set the time from your flight rather than asking you to guess it.
On the way back to Brighton East the pickup follows your arrival time, not your scheduled one. Send us the flight number and we do the rest. 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.
