Airport Pickup

If you’re arriving in Melbourne for the first time to commence your study at Swinburne, you can book a free transfer from Melbourne (Tullamarine) Airport to your accommodation. Please note that we do not currently offer this service from Avalon Airport. You will need to book the airport transfer five working days before your arrival. If your booking is successful, you will receive a confirmation email from our service provider Hughes. If you are ineligible, you will need to arrange your own transports. The Hughes sedan carries a maximum of two check-in sized suitcases and two pieces of carry-on sized luggage.  Any family or friends travelling with you who wish to use the transfer service must book directly with Hughes.
