Gold Coast to Brisbane Maxi Taxi Pricing

Gold Coast → Brisbane Airport (BNE)$300$225$175
Brisbane Airport (BNE) → Gold Coast$300$225$175

ⓘ All fares are per vehicle, fixed, and include GST. The $300 rate applies whether you have 2 or 11 passengers in the maxi taxi. It is one price for the vehicle, not per person: the Maxi Taxi seats up to 11 and carries about 7 large suitcases plus 7 carry-on bags, which suits sports teams, wedding parties, school groups and families travelling together; for 12 to 16 people we run a Maxi Taxi and a Kia Carnival as one booking.

Is It Worth Getting a Maxi Taxi from Gold Coast to Brisbane?

Let’s run the numbers for a group of 8:

  • 8 rideshare trips (splitting into Uber XL pairs): approx. $60–$80 per car × 4 = $240–$320, often with surge pricing during peak periods
  • Our maxi taxi: fixed $300 for all 8 people in one vehicle = $37.50 per person
  • Train: The Airtrain doesn’t run to the Gold Coast — you’d need to drive or Uber to Beenleigh first, then take the train to the airport

For 5 or more people, the maxi taxi is usually the most cost-effective option — and you stay together the whole way.

Maxi Taxi Gold Coast to Brisbane Airport — FAQs

How much does the Maxi Taxi Gold Coast to Brisbane Airport cost?

Our Maxi Taxi Gold Coast to Brisbane Airport is a fixed price from $300 AUD. The quote is the fare — no meters, no surge pricing and no toll surprises. Final price depends on passenger numbers and any child seats.

Do you track my flight?

Yes. Give us your flight number when you book and we track it from departure. If you land early or late the pickup moves with the flight at no charge and with nothing for you to do. At Brisbane Airport your driver waits kerbside at the arrivals pick-up point of your terminal and texts you when parked; add the Brisbane Airport meet and greet ($33) to be met inside the arrivals hall at the baggage carousel with a name sign. We run 24 hours a day including public holidays.

Can you carry large groups or provide child seats?

Yes. A sedan takes up to 3 passengers with 2 large bags and 2 carry-ons; a Kia Carnival up to 7 passengers with 5 large bags; a Maxi Taxi up to 11 with 7 large bags; and for parties of up to 16 we send a Carnival and a Maxi Taxi together, all at one fixed fare per vehicle. Rear-facing, forward-facing and booster child seats are $25 each in the Kia Carnival, Mercedes V300 or Maxi Taxi (sedans cannot take them) and are fitted before you land. Just tell us your child's age and your bag count when you book.
