The run from Brighton
From Brighton the terminal is about 36 kilometres south east, which is roughly 40 min behind the wheel once you are moving. Most of it is on the M2.
Tolls on this route come to about $6 and are built into the fare, so the $100 you see when you book is the $100 you pay. You pay the driver at the end, with no deposit and nothing taken when you book.
For a 6am flight the pickup lands around 3:05am, 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.
For the return to Brighton we watch the flight rather than the clock. If you land late, the car lands late with you, and there is no waiting charge for a delay you did not cause.

Getting to the airport from Brighton
How much is a taxi from Brighton to Melbourne Airport?
A sedan is $100. It is about 36 km and takes around 40 min. The price is fixed before you travel and includes tolls, so it does not change with traffic or the meter.
How long does it take to get from Brighton to Melbourne Airport?
About 40 min in normal conditions. We recommend arriving at Tullamarine two hours before a domestic flight and three before international, and we work backwards from that when you tell us your flight time.
Can I get a taxi from Brighton to the airport at night?
Yes. We run 24 hours, 7 days, including very early departures and late night arrivals. Book ahead for a pickup before 5am so the car is allocated to you rather than dispatched on the night.
Can you bring a child seat to Brighton?
Yes. A capsule, forward facing seat or booster is $40 per seat, fitted before we reach you. Tell us your child's age and rough weight when you book so we bring the right one.
