Private door-to-door transfers from Gold Coast Airport

Your vehicle is booked for your party only. No shared shuttle, no other passengers and no hotel stops on the way. You land, you meet your driver, and you go straight to your address in Surfers Paradise.

Meet and greet is included on every airport booking. Your driver waits in the arrivals area holding a sign with your name, helps with your luggage and walks you to the car. We monitor your flight, so if it lands early or late your driver adjusts the pickup time and you do not need to call anyone.

Choose the vehicle that fits your group and your bags, from an SUV for up to three passengers to a minibus for eleven. Child seats are available on request when you book. Coaches for larger groups are available on request. The booking form shows the fixed price before you pay, and you pay by card online.

Gold Coast Airport international arrivals

Gold Coast Airport at Coolangatta

Gold Coast Airport (OOL) sits at Coolangatta, at the southern end of the coast next to Tweed Heads and the New South Wales border. Surfers Paradise is about 25 km to the north. The drive takes around 30 to 35 minutes depending on traffic, either along the Gold Coast Highway through the beach suburbs or up the M1 motorway.

On the coastal road you pass Kirra, Currumbin and Burleigh Heads before reaching Broadbeach and then Surfers Paradise. The M1 is usually quicker at busy times. Your driver picks the route that suits the time of day, and the price stays the same either way.

For a departure, your driver collects you from your door in Surfers Paradise and takes you back to the terminal at Coolangatta in time for your flight.

Pickup and drop-off areas

Frequently asked questions

Where do I meet my driver at Gold Coast Airport?

Your driver waits in the arrivals area holding a sign with your name. Your booking confirmation explains the meeting point, and you can call or WhatsApp +61 431 910 185 at any time if you cannot see them.

How long does the transfer from Gold Coast Airport to Surfers Paradise take?

About 30 to 35 minutes for around 25 km. Traffic on the Gold Coast Highway and the M1 can add time at peak hours and during school holidays, so treat this as a guide rather than a promise.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

We monitor your flight number. If it lands late, your driver adjusts the pickup time and still meets you in arrivals. If it lands early, we do our best to be there early too.

Can I add a child seat?

Yes. Baby capsules, child seats and boosters are available on request when you book. In Queensland, children under 7 must travel in an approved child restraint, so tell us the ages of your children and we fit the right seats.

Can I book a return transfer to Gold Coast Airport?

Yes. Choose Return in the booking form and enter your departure flight. Your driver collects you from your Surfers Paradise address and takes you to the terminal at Coolangatta.

How many people and bags fit in one vehicle?

An SUV takes up to three passengers with two large and one medium suitcase. Larger vehicles take four, six, seven or eleven passengers with more luggage. The booking form shows each vehicle so you can pick the one that fits your group.

Is the price fixed?

Yes. The booking form shows the fixed price before you pay, and it does not change with traffic or the route your driver takes.
