COMMON QUESTIONS
What people ask before they book
How much is a taxi to Melbourne Airport?
From Melbourne CBD, standard sedan fares typically sit around $62–$78 depending on time of day and CityLink traffic. Use the instant route estimator at the top of this page or call 0432 300 020 to lock in a guaranteed fixed fare before you travel.
Can I choose between a Fixed Price and a Metered Fare?
Yes. Pre-booked airport and long-distance trips can be locked in at an upfront fixed price with no surge surprises, or you can opt for standard Victorian CPVV metered rates.
Are CityLink tolls and the Melbourne Airport access fee shown upfront?
Yes. Our online estimator and phone quotes factor in standard route tolls and the Melbourne Airport taxi access fee so the number you see reflects the real trip.
Do SUVs or Maxi Cabs cost extra?
Standard sedans carry zero vehicle surcharge. Silver/Luxury Sedans add $11, while high-occupancy SUVs, Wagons, and 11-seat Maxi Cabs add the standard $17.80 vehicle surcharge — always shown before you confirm.
How early can I pre-book a 3am or 4am airport taxi?
You can pre-book days or weeks ahead online, by phone, SMS, or WhatsApp. Early-morning pickups are allocated to a dedicated nearby driver ahead of time so your cab arrives right on schedule.
Can I book by SMS or WhatsApp instead of filling out a form?
Absolutely. Tap the Message (SMS) or WhatsApp button anywhere on the screen, send your pickup address, destination, date/time, and vehicle preference, and our 24/7 dispatch team will confirm promptly.
What if my plans change or my flight is cancelled?
Just call, text, or WhatsApp us as soon as your schedule changes and we will move or cancel your booking without fuss.
Do you track delayed incoming flights automatically?
Yes. Include your flight number (e.g. QF401, JQ507, SQ227) in Step 3 of the booking form and we monitor live arrival times at Tullamarine and Avalon so your driver adjusts to early or delayed landings.
Where do I meet my driver at Terminals 1, 2, 3, or 4?
Once you land and collect your bags, your assigned driver contacts you by phone/SMS for quick pre-booked pickup lane collection, or meets you inside arrivals with a name board if Meet & Greet is requested.
How many suitcases fit in an SUV vs a Maxi Cab?
Our Luxury SUV & Wagon class fits up to 4–6 passengers or 4 large suitcases + 3 cabin bags. For 5–11 passengers or bulky ski/golf luggage (up to 8+ large suitcases), choose the Maxi Cab Van.
Can you supply a baby capsule or child booster seat?
Yes — select the child seat option when booking or mention your child’s age via WhatsApp/phone so our driver arrives with the right restraint already fitted.
Do you accept Cabcharge, MPTP cards, and contactless wallets?
Yes. Every vehicle accepts Cabcharge cards, Digital Passes, eTickets, Victorian MPTP cards, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Cash, with instant GST tax invoices.
Can businesses, NDIS participants, or clinics set up recurring bookings?
Yes — call 0432 300 020 or email book@melbournesilvertaxicab.com.au to arrange corporate account invoicing, NDIS plan-managed transport, or weekly medical transfers.
