The airport figure above includes the toll on the run from Coburg where one applies. A pickup that starts at the airport rank also carries the $5.26 airport fee, which is why the inbound leg is priced separately on the route page.
Booking a Cab in Coburg
Most bookings out of Coburg fall into two groups: the run into the city, about 8.2 km, and the run to Tullamarine, about 15.8 km. Neither is a guess. Both are measured on the real road distance and estimated on the meter rates.
If you are travelling as a group, the maxi seats eleven and costs $17.80 more than a sedan on the same trip, which is usually cheaper than sending two cars.

How much is a taxi from Coburg to Melbourne Airport?
A sedan works out around $36 to $45 for the roughly 15.8 km run, and a maxi seating eleven around $53 to $65. Those estimates come from the metered rates applied to the real road distance, and they include the toll where the route carries one. The exact total depends on the traffic and the time of day.
How long does it take to get from Coburg to the airport?
Around 21 minutes in ordinary traffic, going across on the Western Ring Road and into the airport from the north. Add time in the weekday peaks, and for an international flight most airlines want you at the terminal three hours ahead, so a pickup about 3.5 hours before departure is the safe call from Coburg.
Can I book a maxi taxi in Coburg?
Yes. The maxi seats up to eleven people and takes 8 large bags, which is the one to book for a group heading to the airport together. It carries a $17.80 surcharge over a sedan on the same trip. Book it online or by phone and say how many bags are coming.
Is a silver service car available in Coburg?
Yes. Silver service is Melbourne's premium taxi tier, a better car with a suited driver, and it runs on the same metered rate with a $11.00 surcharge. From Coburg that puts an airport run at roughly $47 to $58.
Do you pick up from Coburg late at night?
Yes, bookings run around the clock. A late trip is priced on a different tariff: the evening and overnight rate applies from 5pm to 9am, and the higher weekend rate applies 10pm to 4am Friday and Saturday nights, and public holidays. Booking ahead matters more at those hours, particularly for a Coburg pickup.
