Melbourne Tullamarine Concierge — Across Terminals 1 to 4, Through SmartGate and Biosecurity
Melbourne airport concierge is a VIP meet-and-greet service where a dedicated greeter meets you at the aircraft door at Tullamarine, then escorts you through SmartGate immigration, baggage reclaim, biosecurity and customs to a waiting chauffeur. Curo monitors your flight in real time and handles the entire arrival, gate to car.
Tullamarine's Four Terminals Under One Roof
Melbourne Airport, universally known as Tullamarine, groups four terminals into a single connected complex about 23km from the city. Terminal 1 is Qantas's domestic home, Terminal 2 is the international terminal serving Qantas long-haul, Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific and United, Terminal 3 handles Virgin Australia domestic, and Terminal 4 is the low-cost terminal for Jetstar and Rex. Because the terminals adjoin, walking between an international arrival at T2 and a domestic departure is shorter here than at most Australian airports, and Curo greeters guide every step.
Clearing Melbourne: SmartGate and Biosecurity Checks
At Tullamarine's Terminal 2, eligible ePassport holders use SmartGate kiosks while others are processed manually. As at every Australian gateway, biosecurity is the genuine pinch point: each arriving passenger files an Incoming Passenger Declaration, and undeclared food, fresh produce, seeds or wood can lead to inspection, detector dogs or penalties. Your Curo greeter helps you fill in the declaration correctly, points out items that must be disclosed, and walks you through the correct customs channel so an honest mistake never becomes a costly delay.

Frequently asked questions
Where will my greeter meet me at Melbourne Airport?
Your Curo greeter meets you at the aircraft door or jet bridge in Terminal 2, holding a name board, not waiting in the public hall. They track your inbound flight live and stand ready whether you arrive early or late at Tullamarine, then escort you directly towards the SmartGate immigration area.
How does Curo help with biosecurity at Tullamarine?
Australia's biosecurity controls are strict and every traveller completes an Incoming Passenger Declaration at Melbourne. Your greeter helps you fill it in accurately, advises which food, plant or wood items must be declared, and steers you to the right customs channel, so genuine declarations clear quickly and you avoid inadvertent breaches.
What does Melbourne airport meet and greet cost?
Curo's Tullamarine concierge is priced in USD from $250 per traveller for Silver, including a personal greeter, SmartGate and immigration escort and baggage help. Gold is $380, adding fast track, a porter and lounge coordination. Platinum is $510 and includes a private chauffeur transfer into Melbourne.
Which Tullamarine terminal does my airline use?
Terminal 2 is the international terminal for Qantas long-haul, Emirates, Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific. Terminal 1 is Qantas domestic, Terminal 3 is Virgin Australia domestic, and Terminal 4 serves Jetstar and Rex. As the four terminals adjoin, your Curo greeter easily guides you between them when you connect.
Are Melbourne's terminals far apart?
No. Tullamarine groups Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4 into one connected building, so walking from the international Terminal 2 to a domestic departure is shorter than at most Australian airports. Even so, your Curo greeter walks the route with you, handling bag re-check and biosecurity so connections stay stress-free.
What happens if my flight to Melbourne is delayed?
Curo monitors your flight in real time and adapts to the actual landing time at Tullamarine. There is no rebooking, no cancellation and no extra charge for delays. Your greeter waits for the aircraft you are genuinely on, and your chauffeur is timed against the live arrival rather than the timetable.
Can Curo handle an international-to-domestic connection at Melbourne?
Yes. If you land internationally at Terminal 2 and connect to a Qantas, Virgin or Jetstar domestic flight, your greeter manages the short transfer between terminals, assists with bag re-check and biosecurity clearance, and walks you to the correct domestic terminal in good time for boarding.
Is Melbourne airport concierge worth it?
For business travellers, families and long-haul arrivals, it is. You pass efficiently through SmartGate, avoid biosecurity errors that can trigger inspection or fines, and have a named chauffeur ready for the 23km run into the city, turning a tiring international arrival at Tullamarine into a smooth, escorted exit.
