Travel together
Keep your group in one vehicle
Splitting a family or team across multiple cars adds cost, stress and the risk of someone missing the flight window. A single Kluger or Hiace Maxi keeps everyone — and the luggage — on the same timeline.
Group transfers work well for weddings, sporting teams, school or club travel, visiting relatives and corporate offsites. Tell us the headcount, bag count and any child seats up front so we assign the right vehicle the first time.
As a guide, the Toyota Kluger suits many mid-size groups with standard luggage, while the Hiace Maxi is the better call when passenger numbers climb or holiday bags, sports gear and prams stack up. If you are unsure, describe the load when you book and we will recommend the fit.
Booking details that matter
Share these when you reserve
- Exact passenger count Adults, children and infants — including who needs a baby or booster seat.
- Luggage profile Suitcases plus golf clubs, surfboards or mobility aids.
- Pickup points One address is simplest; ask us early if you need a short multi-stop collection.
- Flight numbers For arrivals monitoring and realistic departure buffers.
- Event timing Weddings and tours often need a fixed leave time — say so in the notes.
Capacity guidance
Choose Kluger vs Maxi with confidence
- Kluger Strong mid-size choice for families and small teams with standard luggage.

Group FAQ
Group transfer questions
Can you do two pickups?
Short multi-stop collections may be possible — ask when booking so timing stays realistic.
Weddings and events?
Yes — give ceremony or reception times so airport legs do not collide with photos.
Group trip types
Weddings, teams, families and tours
Wedding parties often need airport legs that respect ceremony photos and reception start times — give us the full day timeline. Sporting teams and school groups need honest luggage counts including kits and instruments.
Holiday families splitting across two cars create coordination risk at Avalon or Tullamarine. One Maxi can be simpler and calmer. If two vehicles are genuinely better, we can quote that too.
Multi-stop pickups across Ocean Grove and Torquay may be possible with enough lead time; long milk-runs before a tight international check-in are not. Ask early.
Capacity examples
Rules of thumb — always confirm when booking
- 2–3 adults, light bags Camry often fine.
- Family of five with suitcases Kluger territory.
- 6+ with holiday luggage Maxi — or split only if needed.
- Golf or surf groups Declare clubs/boards up front.
Planning a group airport day
One plan beats three improvised cars
Groups fail airport logistics when half the party books rideshare and the other half expects a Maxi that was never reserved. Start with headcount, ages (for seats), luggage including sports gear, and whether everyone shares one pickup address.
Weddings and events should share ceremony and reception anchors so airport legs do not collide with photos. Sporting teams should declare kit bags early. Extended families splitting across Bellarine holiday houses may need staged pickups — possible with notice, risky before a tight international check-in.
At the terminal, one coordinated meet instruction reduces the classic “which door?” scramble. Share the booking confirmation with every adult who might call the driver.
Group FAQ
Capacity and coordination
When do we need two vehicles?
When luggage or seats exceed Maxi reality — we will say so honestly.
Can we book a return for the whole group?
Yes — inbound flight numbers help monitoring for everyone.
Do you wait for slow reclaimers?
We monitor flights; individuals still need a charged phone and a clear meet plan.
Day-of group discipline
One voice for the driver
Nominate a lead passenger who holds the confirmation and phone. Everyone else follows that meet instruction instead of improvising separate doors at Tullamarine. At Avalon the geometry is simpler, but the same single-voice rule still prevents split pickups.
If part of the group is delayed in reclaim, tell us — do not assume the vehicle can endlessly circle without affecting later jobs.
Group extras
Seats and bags
Mixed adults and kids?
Count everyone and request seats at booking.
Staggered flights?
Often better as separate jobs — ask us.
