The run from Truganina
Truganina sits south west of Melbourne Airport. Allow about 20 min for the drive and 22 kilometres on the odometer. 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 $65 you see when you book is the $65 you pay. You pay the driver at the end, with no deposit and nothing taken when you book.
Being this near the airport has one real advantage: a dawn departure does not cost you the night before it. For a 6am flight out of Truganina we would be at your door around 3:25am, which still leaves a reasonable sleep.
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.

How much is a taxi from Truganina to Melbourne Airport?
A sedan is $65. It is about 22 km and takes around 20 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 Truganina to Melbourne Airport?
About 20 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 Truganina 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 Truganina?
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.
