Seamless way to get into the city. We landed, boarded the SkyBus and were in the city in 30 minutes. So much better and cheaper than catching a taxi or Uber.

Simple, easy to use and a great service particularly for anyone who is an anxious traveller / unsure how to get about. Service takes you from airport to a transportation hub / central park of Melbourne with ease of access to facilities and attractions

Was quick and easy didn't have to wait very long. The sign said 7 mins when I got there and the bus was ready and waiting. By the time I retrieved my emailed QR code and the attendant scanned it only had a few minutes before departure. The lady bus driver was very helpful to everyone embarking, directing them where to put their luggage and making sure there was space at each stop. Was smooth sailing to my connection at Southern Cross station considering it would have been around peak hour traffic.

First time user of the Skybus and loved it. No waiting to get on a bus. Arrived quickly at Southern Cross too so I was then able to get a Metro train home without any problems. Getting off was easy even though it was a full bus, there are two lots of stairs to get from the top level. It all moves pretty seamlessly. Will definitely use this again.

It made our travel experience simple and enjoyable without worry for car parks or getting in long queues to wait because the sky buses were readily available after getting on line and getting the tickets. We really appreciated the services from the airport customer services to the southern cross staff and bus drivers. This has been our first time to use the sky bus in all our thirty years living in Melbourne. We learned from our adult children who just catches the bus to the airport all the time. They helped us and we loved the services so much. Thank you once again for the services that you provide to make our travel experience awesome.

Having pre-booked ticket makes it a breeze. I just hopped on, popped my luggage in the rack and headed upstairs for a pleasant ride to the airport. It's always a nice opportunity for downtime, especially with a good audiobook. The bus ride is smooth and comfortable.
