At the Airport

Your chauffeur meets you inside arrivals with a name sign and helps with your luggage. Your booking information includes the pickup details, and you can contact us if you need help after you land.
Provide your flight number where applicable, your scheduled arrival or departure time, passenger numbers and luggage details. These details help us plan the transfer around your itinerary.
For Melbourne Airport arrivals, 60 minutes of free waiting time is included, counted from your flight's actual landing time. With live flight tracking, a delayed arrival does not use up your waiting time. If you ask your chauffeur to wait longer, additional waiting and parking charges may apply.
Contact us as soon as possible if your flight time or other travel details change. We will review the updated information and the available options for your transfer.
Contact and collection information is provided with your confirmed booking where applicable. Contact us if you need clarification before your scheduled pickup.
