    Getting an airport bus to the eastern suburbs will be the easiest way. Getting a Taxi will be the most expensive way - I think you can hire a car for a day cheaper than the taxi ride.

    Otherwise try Metlink as a public transport planner (I haven't used it, I just found it).

    also look up Home - Airport Bus Eastside or Skybus Super Shuttle

    For a single person, the bus is cheaper than Fuel, Tolls & Parking costs.

    I live right next door to Wantirna in Ringwood.

    Michael2 is on the money for best transport if Hiline isn't able to make it. I see the skybus airport bus most days.

    Otherwise bus to City, Train from City to Ringwood (Lilydale/Belgrave line) and Bus to Wantirna down Wantirna Rd. Fairly easy.

    Enjoy the warm weather! (Now that should at least bring some rain)

    I'm flying in to Melbourne on the 16-Feb at 6am. I could give you a lift from the airport as I'm going close enough to Wantirna. Sounds like you're a week early though.

    And yes you can even hire a car, tolls, fuel and parking for a day cheaper than a taxi.

    Seriously Zook, take up Ray's offer to save you the stress of Melbourne's public transport system that doesnt go anywhere near our international airport and is just a general PITA to travel on not to mention the violence and vandlism of late on the eastern lines.

    Now that you have the information you need, give Ray a call and only use it if in dire need.
