Your Airport Run from Brighton

The run from Brighton covers 36 km and takes about 40 minutes in ordinary traffic. Your estimated fare is around $95 to $115 in a standard taxi.

Traffic can push this out to about 60 minutes at the wrong time of day, which is worth planning around even though it will not affect your fare.

How Early to Book Your Brighton Pickup

Most passengers leaving Brighton give themselves three hours for a domestic flight. International needs another hour on top. The drive accounts for 40 minutes of that.

There is no late night loading and no early morning premium. The fare is the same at 4am as it is at midday.

Travelling with a Group

From Brighton a standard taxi is $95 to $115 and an SUV is $112 to $136, the difference being boot space rather than seats. A group of up to eleven takes the maxi at $112 to $136.
