It was easy to book tickets online and the directions to the bus top from the airport was clearly signposted. There was plenty of luggage storage and the bus ride to Melbourne bustation was comfortable despite the heatwave. I strongly recommend this company as it is totally stressfree especially after a long flight. Thank you for an excellent service!

Bus unloading & offloading smooth & convenient. Ground staff usually very helpful & patient. Ticketing online straight forward, although the change to using the Headout App was unexpected. Hope fully it will prove to be as useful as direct ticketing was. No air conditioning on one very hot Melbourne day; very uncomfortable ride on a full bus

Very convenient! I booked a round trip bus ticket online just before boarding my plane to Melbourne. Since my arrival (4AM) and departure (5:55AM) times were rather unlikely hours for a lone traveler, I needed a sure and safe transit to and from the airport. The shuttle bus made my travel very very easy!

The ride was excellent seeing views of Melbourne city from the top deck of a double-decker bus. Having pre-purchased my ticket on line, made catching the bus easier. Buses departed every 10 minutes so didn't have to wait long and they even have racks to store bulky luggage items.

Using Skybus to get to the airport was so easy. At the departure terminal the singer was very clear and staff helpful when checking digital ticket. The bus driver was very competent and her welcome greeting sounded genuine. Details relayed regarding drop off procedure were concise and given with plenty of time to take it all in. The only minor issue I have was with the online booking was that I couldn't find how to nominate a time I wanted to catch the bus.. This option may be on the site and I missed it , Ali I couldn't see how often the Skybus departed for the airport, once again this information may be on the site and I missed. Despite the minor issues with online booking I would definitely use Skybus again.

Very efficient, clean and reliable - I walked out of the airport and straight onto a waiting bus with the same experience at the terminal in the city when returning to the airport. Very easy to purchase tickets online beforehand with use of the app to have the ticket scanned. Great run to and from the city as well with the city terminal very conveniently located to the city - highly recommended and much more cost effective than a taxi/uber. The free tram service in the city also makes getting to the hotel very easy with the first stop not too far from the bus terminal.

    The bus was close to baggage collection at the airport and lovely staff were friendly and helpful getting me on board. It was a full bus but the luggage compartments were adequate for all our luggage. Wonderful that buses are do frequent.
