Overview
We’re changing the way you pick up and drop off for Terminals 1,2 and 3 from Spring 2026.
New Pick Up and Drop Off zones
We’re getting ready for a big change to the way you pick up and drop off at Melbourne Airport.
In Spring 2026 we’ll open our new, free and expanded Pick Up and Drop Off zones for passengers using Terminal 1 (Qantas Domestic), Terminal 2 (International) and Terminal 3 (Virgin Australia) in the new T123 Transport Hub.
It will operate in a similar way to the T4 Transport Hub for Jetstar and Rex passengers, but on a bigger scale.
There’ll be a new dedicated exit from the Tullamarine Freeway and more room for your hellos and goodbyes. The new Pick Up and Drop Off zones will allow us to start expanding the International Terminal.
We’ll have plenty of support on hand to help guide you through the changes. So keep an eye out for the signs to the new T123 Transport Hub, and let’s get ready together.
