Abbotsford is close enough to the centre that a short trip can be over almost as soon as it starts. On a job that brief the flag fall is a real share of the total, which is why the minimum fare of $18.00 exists and why the number on a two kilometre run looks higher per kilometre than a longer one does.
Airport runs from Abbotsford go straight out through the CityLink tunnels and onto the Tullamarine Freeway. Allow about 29 minutes, and more in the Friday afternoon peak.

Yes, bookings run around the clock.
