Declaration

I understand that the airport pickup service is free to all international degree/exchange/study abroad and English Language students, but that family members accompanying me may be required to pay a fee directly to the driver.

I understand that the University requires at least 3 business days to confirm my airport pick-up. I am aware that my request may not be processed if I lodge an application less than 3 business days prior to my departure. I understand that I am responsible for the information provided in this application and that any incorrect information may result in my application not being processed in time for my arrival.

I understand that I am responsible to carry all luggage outside of the airport.

I understand everyone traveling in a motor vehicle must be wearing a child restraint, booster seat or seat belt that is properly adjusted and fastened. This is the law in Australia. The type of restraint to use depends on the person's age and size. To find out more see the VicRoads website.

I understand that due to time constraints I will not be able to make any stops on the route from the airport to the destination nor will I able to make any purchases, currency transactions or complete a COVID test at the airport if I wish to use this service.
