The run from Croydon
From Croydon the terminal is about 52 kilometres east, which is roughly 53 min behind the wheel once you are moving. Most of it is on the National Highway M80.
Tolls on this route come to about $6 and are built into the fare, so the $135 you see when you book is the $135 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 2:52am, 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.
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.

Getting to the airport from Croydon
How much is a taxi from Croydon to Melbourne Airport?
A sedan is $135. It is about 51 km and takes around 53 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 Croydon to Melbourne Airport?
About 53 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 Croydon 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 Croydon?
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.
