Gold Coast Airport to Mullumbimby.

Fares by vehicle

These are the fares our booking system returned for the airport-to-Mullumbimby leg, with three nearby Byron Shire stops for comparison. All four start at the same terminal.

Mullumbimby back to Gold Coast Airport isn't listed because we haven't recorded that leg yet; enter your address and pickup time in the form and the fare appears before you pay. Choose Return to book and pay for both legs together. Every fare we publish is on private transfer prices.

Where your driver meets you

At Gold Coast Airport

The airport's passenger pick-up zones are at the front of the terminal, signed along Terminal Drive. They're for immediate pick-ups only: passengers wait ready at the kerb, and vehicles can't park directly in front of the terminal. The airport also suggests allowing 10–15 minutes after landing to collect luggage (Gold Coast Airport). Your booking confirmation gives the meeting arrangement for your trip. Add your flight number when you book and set the pickup to your scheduled landing time.

In Mullumbimby

Door to door. Your driver comes to the address you enter, whether that's a house in town, a property up one of the creek valleys or a retreat in the hills. If the driveway is long, unsealed or hard to find, put directions in the driver notes.

Mullumbimby runs on NSW time

The airport is in Queensland and works on Queensland time all year (Gold Coast Airport). Mullumbimby is in NSW, which uses daylight saving. For 2026–27, NSW clocks went forward on 4 October 2026 and go back on 4 April 2027 (NSW Government). Between those dates Mullumbimby is an hour ahead of the terminal.

It matters most on the way home. Your flight time is in Queensland time, but the pickup you'll naturally think of is on the kitchen clock in NSW. Pick one, convert carefully, and write in the driver notes which time zone your pickup is in. There's more on this in the NSW and Queensland summer time difference.

Choosing a pickup time for your flight home

We don't quote a drive time, because the road between the Brunswick Valley and the border changes with the hour and the day. Instead, work backwards:

1. Find your airline's check-in or bag-drop cut-off for your flight. That deadline is in Queensland time.
2. Allow for the 58 km drive, plus a margin for traffic and roadworks on the day.
3. In daylight-saving months, add an hour to turn that Queensland pickup into Mullumbimby time.
4. Book that NSW time and say so in the notes.

For a first flight of the day, read early and late flights on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. The form shows the earliest pickup time available when you book.

What's included

• A vehicle for your party alone, with no shared stops on the way.
• One fixed fare for the vehicle, shown before you pay by card online.
• Your flight number on file for the airport pickup.
• Notes to your driver about gates, driveways or access.

Child seats and luggage

Add rear-facing, forward-facing or booster seats by quantity in the form; the total can't be more than the number of passengers. NSW and Queensland both have child restraint rules, summarised in child seat rules in Queensland and NSW.

An executive sedan takes up to three passengers and two bags. The Mercedes V-Class and Vito-Tourer each take up to seven passengers and five bags, so a family of four with a pram and two suitcases usually fits the van better than the car. Details are on private transfer vehicles.

Around Mullumbimby

Mullumbimby is one of the gateway towns for the Gidjuum Gulganyi Walk, a self-guided 42 km walk over four days and three nights through Mount Jerusalem National Park, Nightcap National Park and Whian Whian State Conservation Area. NSW National Parks lists it as Grade 4, walked one way from north to south only, starting at the Manns Road track head carpark and finishing at Minyon Falls lookout, with stays at three walk-in campgrounds (NSW National Parks). If you're flying in to walk it, our transfer can take you to your accommodation in town; the track head itself is a separate arrangement, so check access with the park first.

Staying on the coast instead? See the Gold Coast Airport to Brunswick Heads transfer or the Gold Coast Airport to Byron Bay transfer. Every town in the shire is on Byron Shire transfers.

Trips must start or finish in Queensland

Every trip we run has one end in Queensland. Gold Coast Airport to Mullumbimby qualifies, and so does Mullumbimby to Brisbane. A ride from Mullumbimby to Byron Bay or Ballina Airport doesn't, because both ends are in NSW. Flying into Brisbane instead? Compare private transfers Brisbane to Byron Bay, or read Gold Coast Airport or Brisbane Airport?
