The run from The Patch
The Patch sits south east of Melbourne Airport. Allow about 1h 08m for the drive and 76 kilometres on the odometer. Most of it is on the M1 and M2.
You will pass through a toll on the way in. We have costed it at about $12 and included it, which is why the quoted $195 does not move on the day. You pay the driver at the end, with no deposit and nothing taken when you book.
A 6am departure means a pickup near 2:37am 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.
For the return to The Patch 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.
