MDDA offers an airport shuttle service to and from Melbourne airport on arrival and departure from the venue. Only one service operates from the airport and needs to be pre booked in advance. Shuttles will depart on time, please keep this in mind when booking your flights and allow plenty of time for the return shuttle on Sunday in case of traffic delays. MDDA is not responsible for missed flights as a result of airport shuttle transfers. Bus stowage will allow for one suitcase and carry on per person, please inform us if you will be bringing any additional baggage and larger items such as strollers/baby car seats. Additional costs apply for transfers required outside of these times or at your own arrangement.
Local Victorian families are also welcomed to take advantage of these transfers as long as these are pre-booked in advance with MDDA and you are on time at the designated pickup points specified (unless otherwise advised).
