About this route
The Queensland airport surcharge is automatically added when the pickup is at Brisbane Airport, so the quoted totals are inclusive. A 6pm Friday departure from Brisbane Airport to South Brisbane costs around A$66.27; the night-rate switch happens later in the evening. The fastest path out of Brisbane Airport uses toll roads worth about A$7.50; the totals above already include that estimate.
Brisbane Airport sits ~14 km north-east of the CBD; AirportLink and the Clem7 tunnel both shorten the trip but add tolls. Treat the A$66.27 midpoint from Brisbane Airport to South Brisbane as a regulated maximum, not a quote: traffic delays only raise the bill if they push the meter through the slow-speed threshold. Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) sets the metered ceiling reflected here — about A$66.27 on the day rate for the trip into South Brisbane.
