Sydney Airport Guide

the airport is located at Sydney Kingsford Smith, a suburb about 25 mins drive from the city CBD.
so you’ve got a few options of getting into town once you’ve grabbed your bags and made your way through customs.

buses
if you haven’t pre-booked your bus ticket with your hostel or hotel ( which, by the way is a really tops idea if you can – saves the hassle) you can try your luck catching a bus from one of the many stops located on the arrivals level of the T1 Terminal. look out for the timetables service between Bondi Junction and Burwood which includes a stop of at T1 International terminal.

you can check out more info about fares, timetables and connections to other parts of Sydney here www.sydneybuses.info

trains
now this is probably the easiest way to get into the CBD. you can jump on a train at the station located at the northern end of the international terminal which you can get to from the arrivals level. just look for the train signs pointing you to the right direction.

when you have found the station look for the Airport Link : the Airport Link is the best way into the city. the Link runs every 10 to 15 mins and only takes about 15 mins to reach the CBD. and it only costs $14.00. the Airport Link takes you to the City Circle line ( check out our transport page to find out what that actually means) from there you can jump on any other train to get to any other train station in and around Sydney.
