Avalon vs Melbourne Airport — Which Is Better for Bellarine Travellers?
For most Bellarine residents, Avalon Airport is significantly cheaper and faster — particularly for travellers in Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and Drysdale. If your airline flies from Avalon (primarily Jetstar domestic routes), it's almost always the better choice.
Melbourne Airport is necessary if your airline, route or destination doesn't operate from Avalon. We cover both airports equally — 24/7, any time of year.
Tips for Bellarine Airport Transfers
- Pre-book well in advance — especially for early morning flights. The Bellarine is a distance from both airports and timing is critical.
- Allow extra travel time — from southern Bellarine towns like Queenscliff, add at least 15–20 minutes to base journey times.
- Book a Maxi Taxi for groups — one vehicle for the whole group is cheaper and easier to coordinate. See our Maxi Taxi page.
- Consider Avalon for early flights — the shorter drive means a later pickup, which matters when your flight is at 6am.
