“A global city like Melbourne demands a transport system that provides choice, certainty, convenience and flexibility, including world-class, multi-modal airport transit solutions.” 
“Victoria needs more than just the Melbourne Airport Rail Link to deal with its growth and congestion challenges. Global airports succeed by providing travellers with a choice of options including rail, bus, taxi, rideshare and self-drive options all working together.”
“As the Victorian Government develops the business case for airport rail it needs to plan for a total airport transport solution for the CBD, the suburbs and regional Victoria. Both SkyBus and rail are part of that total transport solution.”
“SkyBus is already delivering a fast, frequent, friendly and affordable transport option to access Melbourne’s airport from the CBD and a growing number of locations around the city and the state.”
“SkyBus helps reduce congestion by removing the equivalent of 3 million car trips every year. We are agile and can adapt to growing demand, as well as adopt new technology to provide a better travel experience.”
“SkyBus understands the challenge of running a world-class airport passenger service. Our modern, Australian-built fleet already safely transports over 4 million passengers a year, with an average wait of no more than 6 minutes during peak periods.”
“SkyBus is more than just a link between the CBD and Melbourne Airport. We service the east, west and north of Melbourne with direct routes to Melbourne Airport. We will continue to develop new services to complement our City Express, St Kilda Express, Peninsula Express, Southbank/Docklands and new Western Express (Werribee/Tarneit) services.”
“As a key partner of both Melbourne Airport and the Victorian Government, we look forward to helping inform the business case for airport rail to ensure it properly meets the needs of the travelling public.”
“We are encouraged that the Victorian Government is pursuing the proposed North-East Link connecting the Eastern Freeway with M80 ring road. This critically important road infrastructure will provide Northern and Eastern Melbourne with a direct freeway Airport Link that will unlock significant economic and social benefit to these areas of Melbourne.”
“Our planning is already underway to develop a Bus Rapid Transit proposal to utilise the North-East Link and better connect these suburbs via a direct high frequency bus service.
“Just as we have done for the last 40 years, SkyBus will continue to invest and innovate to meet the needs of Airport travellers – both now and into the future. We will continue to work with Melbourne Airport, the Victorian Government, Vicroads and Transurban to keep improving the world-class service we currently provide to our customers.”
“Skybus and our 400 employees are proud to rank as the highest customer rated fare-based public transport service in Australasia.”
“We will continue to provide airport travellers with a choice of flexible, reliable, affordable options both now and for many years to come.”
