The Redcliffe Peninsula sits just across Moreton Bay, only about 30 km — roughly half an hour — from Brisbane Airport. It's one of our shortest, easiest runs, and a door-to-door transfer beats the long train-and-change trip via the city with your luggage.
Ways to get from BNE to Redcliffe
The peninsula is close, but public transport still means changes. Here's the honest comparison:
Private transfer
Door to door, one vehicle, driver tracks your flight and waits. No changes, no stairs with bags. Best for groups, late arrivals and families.
Train
Airtrain to the city, then the Redcliffe Peninsula line out to Kippa-Ring, and a bus or short trip to the foreshore. Cheap but slow with two changes and luggage.
Rideshare / taxi
Available at the terminals — reasonable for this shorter run, but still metered and subject to surge, with no flight tracking if you land late.
Self-drive hire car
Fine if you need a car for your stay, but there's the hire cost and parking — overkill for a simple airport run.
Landing soon? A fixed-fare private transfer is the quick, easy way across the bay to Redcliffe.

The drive: what to expect
From the airport your driver takes the Gateway Motorway north, then crosses Moreton Bay on the Houghton Highway bridge onto the Redcliffe Peninsula. It's a short, scenic run of around 30 minutes, with water views most of the way, dropping you right at your Redcliffe address.
It's one of our quickest transfers, but the bridge and peninsula roads can slow at weekday peak. We track your flight and time the run so it stays smooth — and your fixed fare doesn't move.
What to do when you arrive
Redcliffe is a relaxed bayside town with a great foreshore and a bit of pop-culture history. A few of our drivers' favourites:
Redcliffe Jetty & markets
The historic jetty, waterfront cafés and the Sunday markets along the foreshore.
Settlement Cove Lagoon
A free bayside swimming lagoon with sand and shade, right on the waterfront.
Scarborough
The marina, fish-and-chips and headland walks at the northern end of the peninsula.
Bee Gees Way
The laneway tribute to the Bee Gees, who grew up in Redcliffe before finding fame.

Local tips from our drivers
Lock in your airport-bound transfer when you book the arrival — a guaranteed car on the morning you fly out, without an early train-and-change from the peninsula.
With your flight number we track the actual landing and adjust pickup automatically. Land early or late and your driver is still there — no calls, no extra charge.
Because it's a short run, a van for the family or group is excellent value versus multiple taxis — just tell us your numbers.
