About this route
A 6pm Friday departure from Burleigh Heads to Gold Coast Airport costs around A$38.04; the night-rate switch happens later in the evening. The standard path out of Burleigh Heads avoids tolls, so the meter is the whole story for this trip.
Over 12.5 km the meter alternates between two rates: a per-kilometre charge while the cab is moving, and a per-minute waiting rate once it drops below the slow-speed threshold. That is why a A$38.04 trip from Burleigh Heads to Gold Coast Airport costs more in stop-start traffic than the distance alone suggests. Rates verified against Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR); a typical Burleigh Heads → Gold Coast Airport fare on the day rate is A$38.04, the regulated maximum for the route.
