Getting to Avalon from Melbourne's North
Avalon Airport sits off the Princes Freeway near Lara, between Werribee and Geelong, on the far side of the city from our bases in Mickleham and Bundoora. From the northern suburbs the drive takes the Western Ring Road and then the Princes Freeway, so it is a much longer trip than Tullamarine.
From Mickleham it is about 87 km and 62 minutes on a clear road. Allow extra in weekday peak, and tell us your departure time when you book so we can suggest a pickup time that leaves room for check in and bag drop.
Most flights from Avalon are Jetstar, so check your airline's own check in times before you choose the pickup.
Coming Home from Avalon
For a pickup at Avalon, add your flight number when you book. We watch the arrival time, so the driver is there when you come out and you are not paying for a car that waited on the wrong time.
Avalon Airport charges taxis an access fee for pickups at the terminal, and it shows as part of your fare. A drop off at Avalon carries no pickup fee.
