Gold Coast Airport Pick-Up Zone Guide
Knowing exactly where to meet your driver at Gold Coast Airport (OOL / Coolangatta Airport) saves time and avoids confusion. This guide covers the domestic and international pick-up zones, T1 and T2 terminal layouts, and what to expect when your GC Airport Transfers driver arrives.
Where Is the Pick-Up Zone at Gold Coast Airport?
Gold Coast Airport has two terminals — T1 (Domestic) and T2 (International) — both accessed from the main terminal building on Eastern Avenue, Bilinga. Private transfer pick-ups are arranged at the Ground Transport area directly outside the arrivals hall on the ground level.
Domestic Pick-Up (T1)
For domestic arrivals in a sedan or Kia Carnival, your driver meets you inside the terminal at the baggage carousel, holding a name sign, and walks you to the vehicle. Meet and greet is included in the fare. For a Maxi Taxi, your driver waits kerbside at the Ground Transport area immediately outside the arrivals doors, unless you add meet and greet for $15 when booking. If you can’t locate your driver, call 0414 680 860 and they will guide you to their exact position.
International Pick-Up (T2)
International passengers clear Customs and Immigration and come out into the public arrivals area. In a sedan or Kia Carnival your driver is waiting there at the baggage carousel meet and greet point with a name board, included in the fare; for a Maxi Taxi the pick-up is kerbside at Ground Transport unless you add meet and greet for $15. We monitor your flight in real time — if your flight is delayed, your driver adjusts automatically at no extra charge.
Gold Coast Airport Pick-Up Area Tips
- Short-term parking and pick-up bays are available directly outside arrivals — sedan and Kia Carnival bookings are met inside at the baggage carousel; Maxi Taxi bookings are met at the kerb unless meet and greet ($15) is added.
- Do not go to the taxi rank or rideshare zone — your private transfer driver will be in the arrivals hall or at the designated Ground Transport area.
- We track your flight live, so there is no need to call ahead if your flight is early or late.
- Child seats, booster seats and infant capsules can be pre-booked — confirm at the time of booking.
