About this route

Queensland adds a small airport-pickup surcharge to fares starting at Gold Coast Airport; that surcharge is already baked into the A$20.52 typical meter shown above. Friday-evening trips from Gold Coast Airport to Coolangatta price similarly at A$20.52, since the regulated tariff doesn’t shift until the late-night band activates.

Standard QLD rank-and-hail rules apply between Gold Coast Airport and Coolangatta: the driver must run the meter unless a regulated fixed fare is explicitly in effect (so the A$20.52 midpoint above is a maximum, not a quote).
