The car parks and roads at Melbourne Airport are very busy today

All car parks at Melbourne Airport are nearly sold out today. If you don't have a booking, consider alternate forms of transport to come to the airport. If you do have a booking, allow extra time to find a spot and have your QR code ready for a smooth entry. If using the Terminal 4 car park including pick up and drop off, please note Naarm Way is closed until mid November. To access the T4 car park, please exit the Tullamarine Freeway at Exit 18 on Mercer Drive, then turn right at the Airport Drive roundabout and follow the signs to the Terminal 4 car park. Proceed to Level 2 for drop-offs or Level 1 for pick-ups. Due to ongoing construction in the Terminal 1,2,3 car park pick-up and drop-off areas, passengers should plan for potential delays of up to an hour during peak times if you are being dropped off by a loved one, taxi or Uber.  Thank you for your patience while we are building your airport.

11 November 2018 will mark 100 years since the cessation of hostilities on the Western Front in World War I.

 

In recognition of the Centenary of Armistice, Melbourne Airport will be co-ordinating a small program of activities to help travellers and the airport community honour the moment on Sunday, 11 November from 10.55am. 

 

It’s not always possible to arrange travel or work commitments around important moments, so we wanted to create the opportunity for people who are at the airport on the 11th of November to find a moment of personal reflection and remembrance.

 

Supporting the activities on Sunday, 11 November is an installation of poppies on the newly unveiled ‘Melbourne Wall’ in our T2 Departure space. Approximately 19,000 Victorian soldiers lost their lives in WWI, on foreign shores on the other side of the world from their families and loved ones. Our ‘Melbourne Wall’ contains a poppy for every Victorian soldier who fell. This installation is also reflected outside on the forecourt ‘Melbourne’ sign.

 

Both installations will remain in place for a short time after Remembrance Day.

 

Lest We Forget.
