The run from Lyal
From Lyal the terminal is about 78 kilometres north west, which is roughly 1h 02m behind the wheel once you are moving.
Nothing on this route is tolled, which is why $190 comes in below what the distance alone would suggest. You pay the driver at the end, with no deposit and nothing taken when you book.
A 6am departure means a pickup near 2:43am once you allow two hours at the terminal and the drive in. It is worth booking the night before so the car is allocated rather than dispatched at short notice.
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.
