Airport Pickup

Monash University welcomes new international students with a free airport pick-up service for students arriving at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport (MEL) for the first time. Our drivers will take you to your accommodation, which you’ll need to have arranged before your arrival. Make sure you’ve enrolled in units before you try to book your airport pick-up. Book before you leave You need to book your airport pick-up at least four working days before you arrive in Melbourne. If you’re under 18 or a PhD student, you may be able to have a family member accompany you (we'll assess your request on a case-by-case basis). You’ll get a confirmation email from Aero Corporate Cars with instructions for finding your driver when you arrive. If you need to change your booking, you must let Aero know at least 14 hours before your arrival. Drop-off location Your driver can only take you to one address. They can’t make stops for you to collect keys, buy food or change currency. If you need to collect keys, arrange for someone to meet you at the airport 45 minutes after your flight lands, or at your drop-off location. If you’re going to Monash Residential Services accommodation, these are the three drop-off locations (choose the one where you’ll be staying): Urban Community Administration Office at 38 College Walk, Monash Clayton campus Residential Village Administration Office at 58 College Way, Monash Clayton campus Peninsula Residential Office at Level 1 Building U, Monash Peninsula campus.
