Update: SkyBus also accept these tickets on the Melbourne City Express service.

(I called them to confirm and travelled on the Melbourne City Express myself using these tickets)

Buses run directly between Melbourne Tullamarine Airport (MEL) and Docklands, then stop at convenient locations throughout Docklands and Southbank.

    Price in title OP.

    A % on its own means very little.

    • tranter on 10/10/2018 - 17:34

      Numerous popular SkyBus posts never had price in title:
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/skybus.com.au

      Mods will change it if deemed necessary since you reported it.

      • db2k on 10/10/2018 - 17:54

        FWIW - I think title is fine, given previous posts - and anyone who travels knows what the price is, as it's always a fixed price - unlike buying a TV from TGG vs that same TV from HN …

        • UFO on 10/10/2018 - 18:03

          Just going by the rules guys. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:title_guidelines

          IMO a % discount means very little when a price isn't given. Yeah I get that Skybus has pretty standard pricing, so a 15% discount is still a "bargain", but for those interstate travellers (like me and quite a few OzBargainers who don't know the regular prices), it would be handy to see some pricing. Anyway, my 2c.

          • db2k on 10/10/2018 - 18:10

            @UFO: Ah, I see - so prices for Adult one way/return or a family return in body of text etc … yeah good suggestion and handy for interstate travelers.

            But looking at past posts, it's consistent … so I guess the mod will make the call.

    Can confirm this works on the City Express bus! On the bus now from airport. Lady at booth said the tickets for City and Docklands are “interchangeable”. So just purchase tickets for Docklands and jump on the bus for City!

    • tranter on 26/10/2018 - 09:45

      Great, thanks for feedback!

    Just used this at spencer street, thanks heaps :)

  • monkeydo on 21/12/2018 - 13:58

    Used it from Southern Cross and back.. No dramas. On the way back they said that this was a bus to Southern Cross not to docklands and I said we changed our minds, they could not care they are just keeping you informed.

    This still works, used today on skybus from southern cross station to tullermarine airport. Currently the tickets are cheaper to purchase online via the link at $17.50 one way, with the additional 15% off using above code it comes to $14.87 AUD all up for one way.

  • FallenZector on 24/02/2019 - 10:38

    Used it on 16/2/19 from the airport to southern cross and can confirm it works

  • crumbo85 on 29/03/2019 - 00:33

    Seeing the error Code not Valid here

    • Hamlet on 30/03/2019 - 13:38

      You have to buy 'docklands/southbank tickets' for the code to work

  • jfc50832 on 05/04/2019 - 18:10

    I used a return ticket on 3 and 4 Apr 2019 at Southern Cross station. Still works. Cost $30.60

  • DingoBilly on 15/04/2019 - 09:39

    Still working for me as at 15 April.

    Note you have to select Docklands Express - doesn't work just for Melbourne City Express.

  • Parsnip on 20/04/2019 - 15:05

    Used it today and it still works. Thanks!

  • BruceJack on 27/04/2019 - 15:22

    Still works! Thanks OP

  • VK0404 on 30/04/2019 - 17:37

    Used today from Southern Cross to Tulla - simply scanned as valid and no comment from ticket attendant. Thanks OP!

  • Beancurd on 31/05/2019 - 06:09

    Purchased this morning, used it straight away and worked. The guy couldn't scan it initially on my phone. I thought sugar, I don't have time to buy the ticket! Luckily it worked at second scan. I'm traveling from Southern Cross to Tulla (Melbourne international airport) at the moment. The traffic is good. Travel time is approx 23 minutes. Thanks OP! 😘

    • tranter on 31/05/2019 - 07:57

      No worries. Have a good flight :)

      I miss Melbourne in Autumn!

  • Triceratops on 10/06/2019 - 17:25

    Did not work for me right now. Might be expired.

    • tranter on 10/06/2019 - 18:42

      Still works for me. Make sure you're buying Southbank Docklands Express tickets.

  • cappuccino99 on 02/07/2019 - 19:25

    Promo code still works. Anybody recently used this Docklands ticket for the City Express instead with no issues?

    • BruceJack on 09/07/2019 - 19:06

      Yes just used and still working!

  • m1108 on 12/07/2019 - 07:30

    MCEC gives 5% off other skybus services if that helps anyone not wanting city tickets

  • expatOz on 12/07/2019 - 11:31

    "Code not valid"

    • tranter on 12/07/2019 - 12:17

      Still works for me. Make sure you're purchasing Southbank Docklands Express tickets.

      • expatOz on 12/07/2019 - 12:18

        But the description says it works for Melbourne City as well, which it doesn't

        • tranter on 12/07/2019 - 12:18

          It doesn't say that but I can reword it to make it clearer.

        • dingdong3000 on 12/07/2019 - 12:18

          You purchase the Southbank Dockland Express ticket(s) and it'll still work for Melbourne City.

  • BruceJack on 27/07/2019 - 11:04

    Just tested [Southern Cross] to [Tullamarine] using Southbank tickets.
    Can confirm that the code is still working and works for both ways. Buying return ticket will also save you some extra cents bringing the total down to $30.60

    Confirmed it works for the Spencer st station - I just said I must have bought the wrong ticket when he told me I was at the wrong bus stop

    • rith on 12/08/2019 - 14:52

      Did they offer much resistance? A friend of mine tried using it the other day to Southern Cross and the person who scanned his ticket complained about the wrong ticket but still let him on eventually. With that and yours, I'm just a little anxious about my trip next week now.

      • 45rpm on 13/08/2019 - 16:35
        +1

        nope he seemed to be more concerned that I got on the right bus. mind you it was about 1 degree apparent ("feels like") temperature. I think if you make the code big enough so he can't see where it was going or if the bus is about to leave/ busy it'll be ok.

        • rith on 13/08/2019 - 18:25

          Thanks :)

      • 45rpm on 13/08/2019 - 16:35

        also they don't know you bought it on sale! All you have is the code. so just say you bought the wrong ticket.

  • Meowcat on 17/08/2019 - 10:09

    Just used this to get on the Melbourne express to southern cross. Worked fine

  • henrikoez on 21/08/2019 - 22:27

    Got the error message 'Code is not valid' when I tried to buy 1 return ticket for adult.
