I arrived at Tullamarine airport around 6am after a midnight flight from Perth & had quite a lit of large heavy luggage with me. I booked by ticket on the airport / Melbourne shuttle which was. As very easy process. I waited a while having a coffee & relax with the suitcases, ensuring that I'd be able to manuevre them easily onto the bus before heafing towards the shuttle. When I arrived at the shuttle, the lively helpful lady helped me with one, while I managed the other. She also helped load them into the storage area. She then even returned the trolley for me. The very best experience! Thank you 😊

My wife and I were dropped off at Southern Cross station by her sister. My wife attempted to get her phone out to have our toclets scanned and found she'd lost it. The Skybus staffers told us not to worry we could get on the bus. We were on our way to the airport when my wife re ever a call from the staffer to tell me to speak to my sister_law who told me the kind staffers was going to g I ve my phone which she had found I her car to the next bus driver going to the airport and he would hand it to me at Terminal 4. Never in my life have I had such kindness and understanding . Congratulations SKY US

Because Melbourne doesn't have a train airport city Link the sky bus is the most affordable and relaxing way to get to And from Melbourne Airport. Having it arrive into Southern Cross station makes it really easy access to get out to all areas throughout Melbourne and Victoria. This line of sky bus has a super regular schedule and you don't have to wait long at all! I love how you can walk on, store your bag and then head upstairs for a nice ride and view coming into the city.

I am in IT so am very technical - the Headout app has terrible user experience and is not clear as to where the ticket and its QR code is. This delayed me getting on the bus. The staff at the airport skybus stand said lots of people have this issue and it slows them processing the travellers

It was easy to book and had clear instructions on where to get on bus when traveling abroad especially as it was late when i arrived and was travelling solo. The ride into the city station was pleasant and bus itself was clean and tidy.
