Gold Coast to Brisbane Cruise Terminal

Brisbane International Cruise Terminal sits at Pinkenba, on the north bank of the Brisbane River near the airport. From the Gold Coast it is roughly 100 kilometres and 75 to 90 minutes up the M1 and the Gateway Motorway. Unison Transfers takes you door to gangway in a private car, with one fixed price agreed before you travel.

Why a private transfer beats the alternatives on a cruise day

A cruise has a boarding window, not a departure time you can catch up with. Coaches leave on their own schedule and stop for other passengers. Ride share pricing surges on the morning a ship sails, exactly when demand spikes. A booked private transfer holds its price and its pickup time whatever the day looks like.

Your chauffeur loads and unloads the cases for you. Cruise luggage is heavier than airport luggage, and the terminal drop off is a long way from the check in desks.

What is included

From $187 per car, not per person. Tolls, GST and the terminal access charge are already in it.
Luggage handled for you at both ends, including oversize cases and golf bags.
Free fitted child seats, capsule, rear facing, forward facing and booster.
Free cancellation any time, and no deposit to book.
A vehicle sized to your party: Lexus sedan for up to 3, Mercedes V Class or Executive Vito Tourer for up to 7 with room for the luggage.

Pickup points we run daily

Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, Main Beach, Southport, Burleigh Heads, Palm Beach, Coolangatta, Robina, Hope Island, Sanctuary Cove and every other Gold Coast address, plus Gold Coast Airport (OOL) for guests flying in the day before.

Coming home

We meet returning ships as well. Give us the vessel name and the disembarkation date and your driver will be waiting when you clear the terminal, with the fare fixed at the price you booked months earlier.

Pricing

Vehicle	Passengers	Price
Lexus ES300h Sedan	1 to 3	from $187
