Melbourne Airport Update
We recently attended the quarterly Melbourne Airport Land Authority meeting and they shared the following updates:-
  • VHA-Z Hire Cars can continue to park on Level1 in one of the 48 bays available for hire car vehicles;
  • Due to cladding around the Park Royal Hotel, Hire Cars can also park in the general public area;
  • Pre-booked taxis can pick up in the T1 Hire Car ground floor area;
  • As the airport is now cashless there is a reduced number of payment machines;
  • Hire Car Drivers must have a current permit, and communications are being sent to drivers advising them of this;
  • Everyone MUST wear masks inside the terminals at all times;
  • QR code signage has been placed at all taxi ranks and Rank Officers will encourage passengers to scan these;
  • Space at the entrance of the Taxi Holding Area has been allocated for taxi drivers to clean and sanitise their vehicles before they enter the Holding Bay. Drivers must use products provided by themselves to clean their cars.
