Getting to this area is probably the most diffilcult for those not familiar with Melbourne Airport. Access to this area is from the southern end of the airport and is further around the road from the Maintenance areas of Qantas/Virgin/John Holland.
There is no public transport nearby and it would be at least a 45minute walk from the terminal area, so car transport is the best option.
