About this route
Melbourne Airport after 10pm on Saturday: the meter steps up to A$68.95, an uplift of A$6.84 on the day-rate equivalent. No toll road sits on the natural route between Carlton and Melbourne Airport, keeping the maths straightforward.
Melbourne Airport has no train line, so the taxi rank, SkyBus and private car parks absorb the entire arrivals load — queues track the arrival bank rather than the hour. Treat the A$62.11 midpoint from Carlton to Melbourne Airport as a regulated maximum, not a quote: traffic delays only raise the bill if they push the meter through the slow-speed threshold. Commercial Passenger Vehicles Victoria (CPVV) sets the metered ceiling reflected here — about A$62.11 on the day rate for the trip into Melbourne Airport.
