Magic Millions Airport Transfers
The Short Answer
CGC runs magic millions airport transfers at standard fixed prices — no event surge, ever. Airport pickups and hotel transfers around the Magic Millions Carnival at Aquis Park, Bundall and the Sales Complex on Ascot Court each January price exactly as any other week: a fixed $105 sedan pickup from Gold Coast Airport to central suburbs, $200 from Brisbane Airport, with the 7-seat Kia Carnival and 12-seat Transporter (quoted on request) covering groups. Drivers carry the road-closure knowledge for the weekend and route to the open access points.
Standard fixed fares through January’s biggest traffic week — driver allocated ahead, closures routed around, no surge.

Getting In and Out
Race day and sales-week traffic concentrates on Bundall — Racecourse Drive and Ascot Court queue from mid-morning, and the surrounding Sorrento streets restrict parking. Your driver works the approach from the Southport or Broadbeach side depending on the hour, dropping at the gate closest to your ticket type.
