Every Airport and Terminal We Serve
| Airport or terminal | Code | Page |
|---|---|---|
| Gold Coast Airport, Coolangatta | OOL | Gold Coast Airport transfers |
| Brisbane Airport, domestic and international | BNE | Brisbane Airport transfers |
| Ballina Byron Gateway | BNK | Ballina Airport transfers |
| Sunshine Coast Airport | MCY | Sunshine Coast Airport transfers |
| Toowoomba Wellcamp | WTB | Toowoomba transfers |
| Brisbane International Cruise Terminal, Luggage Point | , | Cruise terminal transfers |
Flights are tracked on every airport job, so an early or late landing simply moves the pickup. International arrivals carry 60 minutes of free wait and domestic 45, measured from wheels down rather than the timetable, immigration and baggage sit inside that window. Your chauffeur meets you inside the terminal with a name board. That is standard on every airport transfer, not an upgrade.

The Cross Border Rule, Stated Plainly
We are a Queensland licensed operator, and that shapes what we can accept.
- A job that starts in Queensland and finishes in New South Wales, yes. Gold Coast to Byron Bay is one of our most booked runs.
- A job that starts in New South Wales and finishes in Queensland, yes. Byron Bay to Gold Coast and Byron Bay to Brisbane run daily.
- A job that both starts and finishes in New South Wales, no. Ballina Airport to Byron Bay is the common example, and we will tell you rather than take the booking.
Mind the Clock Between October and April
New South Wales observes daylight saving and Queensland does not, so for roughly half the year Byron Bay runs an hour ahead of the Gold Coast, despite being an hour's drive away. It is the single most common cause of a missed transfer in this region, and it catches locals as often as visitors.
Every Unison booking is quoted and confirmed in the time zone of your pickup point, in writing. If you are flying out of Coolangatta on a summer morning from a NSW address, read the confirmation carefully.
Theme Parks, Races and Events
The Gold Coast theme parks. Movie World and Wet'n'Wild at Oxenford, Dreamworld and WhiteWater World at Coomera, and Sea World at Main Beach. Child seats are free and fitted before we arrive, and a booked return means the vehicle is at the gate when the park closes rather than joining the queue.
The Magic Millions Carnival. Two weeks every January at Aquis Park in Bundall, and the busiest fortnight of the year for private transport on the coast.
The Gold Coast 500. Supercars on a street circuit laid through Surfers Paradise and Main Beach every October, with road closures that change how your hotel is reached.
Race days at Aquis Park. Around 60 meetings a year, including night racing since the 2024 rebuild.
Festivals across the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers, and weddings at venues from Tamborine Mountain to the Byron hinterland.
The Fleet
| Vehicle | Seats | Luggage |
|---|---|---|
| Lexus ES300h executive sedan | up to 4 | 2 large |
| Mercedes Benz V Class | up to 7 | 6 to 7 large |
| Mercedes Benz Vito Tourer | up to 7 | 5 to 6 large |
| Mercedes Benz V250d | up to 7 | 6 to 7 large |
Mercedes Benz and Lexus only, professionally serviced, fully insured and non smoking. Every vehicle seats up to seven, a party of eight or more travels in two or more vehicles departing and arriving together, quoted as one job. See group transfers and the full fleet.
Child Seats, Fitted and Free
| Seat | Suits |
|---|---|
| Capsule | 0 to 6 months |
| Rear facing | 6 months to 1 year |
| Forward facing | 1 to 4 years |
| Booster | 4 to 7 years |
Tell us the ages when you book and the right seats are in the car when it arrives. Most operators charge for these or decline to fit them, and a rideshare will not carry a capsule at all, which for a family arriving overnight is the difference between a transfer and no transfer. See family airport transfers.
For Business
A corporate account means travellers never handle payment: bookings by name, a cost centre on each job, and one monthly invoice listing every trip by date, route and passenger. Used for airport runs, the Gold Coast to Brisbane corridor, conference and delegate movements, FIFO rosters and executive travel.
For visiting clients and public figures, unbranded black car service keeps the arrival discreet.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the price really fixed?
A: Yes. The total quoted at booking is the total you pay, no surge, no late night surcharge, no toll add ons.
Q: How early should I book?
A: 24 to 48 hours ahead is ideal. We accept last minute bookings subject to availability, call 0401 605 940 if it's tight.
Q: Are you licensed?
A: Yes. We are a Queensland Booked Hire Service Licence holder (BHSL 258504) and Booking Entity Authority holder (BEA 260412), ABN 45 647 949 488.
Q: Do you operate in NSW?
A: We are a Queensland licensed operator and cross the border constantly, Queensland to NSW, and NSW back to Queensland. What we cannot accept is a job that both starts and finishes in New South Wales, such as Ballina Airport to Byron Bay.
Q: What does the price include?
A: Tolls, airport parking and access fees, GST and child seats. The figure quoted is the figure charged, at any hour of any day.
Q: Do you charge more at night or on public holidays?
A: No. We run 24 hours at the same fixed price, including 3am departures and red eye arrivals.
Q: How many people can travel in one vehicle?
A: Up to seven. A party of eight or more travels in two or more vehicles departing and arriving together, quoted as a single job.
Q: Can you carry surfboards, golf clubs or a pram?
A: Yes, tell us what you are bringing when you book so the right vehicle is allocated.
Q: What happens if my flight is delayed?
A: We track it and move with it. Free wait is 60 minutes on international arrivals and 45 on domestic, measured from actual landing, and there is no charge for a delay outside your control.
Q: Can I book a return at the same time?
A: Yes, and we recommend it for theme parks, race days and cruise terminals, the vehicle is waiting at an agreed point rather than you queueing with everyone else.
