St Leonards Airport Transfers

Door pickups

Two terminals. One St Leonards door.

Whether you need Tullamarine’s network or Jetstar from Avalon, the pickup starts at the same St Leonards door.

St Leonards travellers book fixed-fare pickups toward Tullamarine (~112 km) or Avalon (~52 km). Use the airport cards below to open the matching guide.

From St Leonards, Avalon is the shorter hop by about 60 km — handy when your airline sits there. Melbourne still wins when you need internationals or broader connections.

Peninsula exits into Geelong come first; summer weekends and school traffic stretch the leave-home window more than a map suggests.

On the road

Avalon timing

Avalon is around 52 km. Jetstar works well when flights align; holiday peaks still require earlier leave times than winter midweek runs.

Melbourne timing

St Leonards to Tullamarine is about 112 km. Plan the northern Bellarine run through Portarlington or Drysdale corridors before Geelong freeway access.

Local tip: Inbound flights: share the flight number for monitoring.

Peak traffic — Melbourne: In peak traffic allow about 20–40 min extra — peninsula exits into Geelong plus Princes Freeway / Tullamarine approaches get busy weekday mornings, Friday evenings and school-holiday Sundays.

Peak traffic — Avalon: In peak traffic allow about 10–20 min extra for Avalon — coastal/peninsula roads into Geelong first, then a shorter industrial corridor. Holiday weekends add the most time.

What matters here

• From St Leonards, airport choice follows the airline on your ticket; we collect at the same the Bellarine Peninsula address either way.
• Foreshore holiday density means few reliable dawn taxis on peak weekends.
• Permanent residents use fixed fares for MEL internationals without sacrificing a car for parking weeks.
