Why the Peninsula run is best pre-booked.
Peninsula trips are too long to leave to the rank queue, especially late at night when few cars want the return empty leg. Booking ahead means a confirmed vehicle waiting at your terminal and a price that does not change if the Peninsula Link is slow.

Airport to Mornington Peninsula: what to expect
Because of the distance, we quote a fixed price for Peninsula transfers so the total is known before you leave the terminal. Enter your pickup date, time and exact destination in the calculator to see it.
The alternative metered fare uses the Victorian tariff for your booking time — day, night or public holiday — plus the Melbourne Airport pickup fee and CityLink and EastLink tolls.
Summer weekends and long weekends load up the Peninsula Link and Point Nepean Road. If you have a ferry or check-in time, tell dispatch and we will build in a buffer.
Extra luggage, golf clubs, baby seats and wheelchair accessible vehicles can be arranged in advance — call 0421 807 027 rather than booking online for those requests.
