Getting from Melbourne airport to the city center

Melbourne is served by Melbourne Airport (MEL), also known as Tullamarine Airport, located 23 km northwest of the city center. The airport offers several airport transfers to city center destinations, including express coaches, taxis, ride-hailing services, and private transfers. Melbourne does not have a direct rail link to the airport, making SkyBus the most popular public transport option. Journey times vary depending on traffic conditions, particularly during peak hours.

Notes:

  • Prices in AUD; table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Melbourne Airport does not have a direct train connection to the city center.
  • SkyBus operates 24/7 with reduced frequency during late night hours.
  • Taxi and ride-hailing pickup points are located at the ground transport area outside each terminal.
  • Road traffic can significantly affect journey times, especially during morning and evening peak hours.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
