A private transfer from Optus Stadium to Perth Airport costs from $57 fixed (sedan, 1–3 passengers) and takes about 13 min for the 8 km journey. The price includes GST, airport fees, tolls, flight tracking and meet & greet — booked with a fixed quote confirmed in writing, available 24/7.
From Optus Stadium, Perth Airport is a 13 min drive (8 km). Optus Stadium sits on the Burswood peninsula with the river on three sides, which is exactly why leaving it is harder than arriving — the bridge and the station both bottleneck at full time. Drop-offs use the closest point event-day traffic management allows and the return pickup is agreed at a named spot before you get out, so a sold-out night ends without a surge fare or a queue. Landmarks on and around this route include Matagarup Bridge, Camfield, Stadium Park.
Heading to the airport, your driver collects you at the door with departure buffer already planned — luggage help included, drop-off at the correct terminal forecourt (T1–T4). Fares are fixed at booking — from $57 for a private sedan, $91 for a people mover seating up to seven — with GST, airport fees and waiting time included. The price is the same at 4am as at 4pm; there is no surge and no meter.

Heading to the airport, the pickup is planned backwards from your flight — the 13 min drive plus check-in buffer (about 90 minutes before domestic departures, three hours before international), so you reach the terminal with time to spare rather than cutting it fine in traffic.
Door-to-door collection from any Optus Stadium address at the exact time you book.
The 8 km journey in a late-model, air-conditioned vehicle — no stops, no ride-sharing, no meter running.
Dropped at the correct terminal forecourt (T1–T4) with check-in buffer already planned into the pickup time.
Coming in from Optus Stadium, the run to Perth Airport uses Great Eastern Highway and the Graham Farmer Freeway tunnel. This is the shortest corridor on the network and the one most exposed to city traffic: the Graham Farmer tunnel and the Causeway approaches are where a metered fare would climb. On a fixed fare the traffic is the driver’s problem, not yours.
8 km is the road distance actually driven between Optus Stadium and Perth Airport, not a straight line on a map, and the 13 min estimate is measured over that road. Both numbers set the fixed fare, so a longer way round in traffic costs you nothing and gives the driver no reason to take one.

A private sedan from Optus Stadium to Perth Airport costs $57 fixed — confirmed at booking with GST, airport fees, tolls and standard waiting time included. A premium sedan is $95 and a people mover seating up to seven is $91; the 8 km journey takes about 13 min.
Pickup time is planned backwards from your departure: the 13 min drive plus check-in buffer (about 90 minutes before domestic flights, three hours before international), confirmed with your booking so the timing is never your problem.
On event days drivers drop at the closest point traffic management allows and collect from a pre-agreed spot afterwards — the fixed fare is set at booking, so post-event surge pricing never applies.
PerthRide is a pre-booked private chauffeur service, which on the Optus Stadium to Perth Airport route means one vehicle reserved for your party alone at a fare fixed in writing before you travel. It is not a metered rank taxi or cab, and not a shared airport shuttle bus that sells seats and stops for other passengers — there is no meter, no surge and no detour, and a maxi-style people mover is available for groups of up to seven.
Event-day road closures around the stadium move every pickup off the immediate precinct, so the return point is agreed at booking — usually a nominated street on the Burswood side, clear of the closure ring and a short walk from the gates. The fare is fixed in advance, so the post-event surge that hits ride-hail apps never applies.
