Terminal 1, 2 & 3

For passengers flying in from Qantas (T1), International Airlines (T2) or Virgin Australia (T3), free 1 minute Pick Up zones are located on Arrival Drive, on the ground level of the Terminal 1,2 & 3 forecourt.  

To access Arrival Drive, simply follow the signs for T123 ‘Pick Up’ on the Tullamarine Freeway that will guide you to the pickup area in the forecourt. 

 Due to construction works in the Terminal 1,2 & 3 forecourt, if you are flying Virgin Australia (T3) it can be easier to pick up on Level 1 of the T4 Transport Hub which is just a short walk to and from Terminal 3. 

Terminal 4

For those flying Jetstar domestic or Rex, pick up is easy on Level 1 of the T4 Transport Hub.  

To access Level 1 in the T4 Transport Hub, exit the Tullamarine Freeway earlier at Exit 19A Naarm Way and follow the signs to the T4 Pick Up zone, or enter the car park if you need more time.
