The Run

From Terminal to Front Door

It is 128 km from Sydney Airport (SYD) at Mascot to Werai, and we allow 2 hr 1 min behind the wheel. Out through the southern and eastern Highlands the roads are quieter but the distance is real, so the pickup times matter more here than almost anywhere we serve.

Coming home the pressure comes off, which is exactly when tiredness lands. The run into the Highlands is long enough that doing it yourself after a flight is a genuinely worse idea than it sounds.

Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 17 are further from Sydney than Werai and 36 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are East Kangaloon at 126 km and Burrawang at 130 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits.

An Honest Comparison

Transfer or Rental Car?

A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.

If you are staying a week and plan to drive around the region every day, hire a car — we would tell you that rather than take the booking. If you are here for a wedding, a weekend or a stay at one venue, a transfer in and out is usually cheaper and considerably less trouble.

Timing

How Late is Too Late?

The bit people underestimate is the gap between wheels down and walking out of the terminal. These allow for that, then the 2 hr 1 min drive to Werai.

Late arrivals cost the same as midday ones. An 11:15pm landing is a normal booking for us: pickups after 8pm add $10, after 10pm $20, plus $10 for an airport pickup.

Arrivals

The Arrival, Step by Step

Nothing about the arrival is left to chance. The flight is tracked, the driver is briefed with your name and number, and the meeting point is sent to your phone before the doors open.

The driver waits at the designated pick-up point outside your terminal. We do not offer a meet-and-greet inside the terminal — we collect you kerbside at the designated pick-up point, which is quicker, and it is already in the fare. Waiting time and parking are already inside your $299, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.

Common Questions

Arriving in Werai — Before You Book

How much is a transfer from Sydney Airport to Werai?

$299 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 128 km and takes about 2 hr 1 min. It is the same fare in either direction.

Should I book before I fly or sort it when I land?

Before. There are very few cars available in the Highlands at short notice and almost none at night, so arriving and hoping is the one approach that regularly fails. Booking costs nothing up front and can be cancelled without a fee.

Is the fare the same going back to Sydney Airport?

Yes. $299 each way, so a return is $598. Most people arriving book the departure leg at the same time, since nothing is charged up front and there is no cancellation fee.

How long does it take to get to Werai from the airport?

About 2 hr 1 min for the 128 km run in normal conditions, plus however long you take to clear the terminal. Landing at 9:15am you would typically be at your door in Werai a little after 11:46am.

Do you take groups with a lot of luggage?

Up to eleven passengers in one vehicle, and every fare allows a check-in bag and a carry-on each. If you are arriving with more than that, say so when you book: extra bags are $5 each and bulky items $10 each.

Do you serve hotels and venues around Werai?

Yes, and we know most of them. Drop-offs at Highlands hotels, resorts and wedding venues are routine — see our venue pages for the ones we run most often.
