What the Trip Involves

Distance, Duration and What it Costs

Medway sits 118 km from Sydney Airport (SYD) at Mascot — all terminals, domestic and international — a 1 hr 45 min drive on a clear road. You're in the heart of the Highlands, where the bulk of our early-morning international work comes from — we run this stretch of the Hume most days of the week.

That run is a flat $279 one way. No meter and no surge: just a $10 airport pickup fee and set fees for pickups before 6am or after 8pm.

You do not pay anything up front. No deposit, no stored card, and no fee if your plans change. The driver takes payment after drop-off.

How the Fare Is Set

Why the Price is What it Is

Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 28 are further from Sydney than Medway and 25 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are Burradoo at 117 km and Sutton Forest at 119 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits.

Worked as a rate, this run costs about $2.36 per kilometre against a network median of $2.42. We publish every suburb so you can check that logic yourself rather than take our word for it.

When We Would Knock on the Door

Worked back from the check-in cut-off, the 1 hr 45 min drive and a fifteen-minute buffer. These are the times we would suggest from Medway; we confirm them with you when you book.

7:15am international2:15am

Those pickups are the standard $279 fare, plus $20 for any pickup before 6am ($10 after 8pm, $20 after 10pm).

Group Size and Vehicle

What it Costs for Your Group

Split between passengers, the Medway run works out cheaper the more of you travel. Every tier allows one check-in bag and one carry-on each.

Group SizeOne WayPer PersonReturn
1–2 passengers$279$140 – $279$558
3–4 passengers$309$77 – $103$618
5–6 passengers$339$56 – $68$678
7–8 passengers$379$47 – $54$758
9–11 passengers$425$39 – $47$850

All fares include tolls, fuel and GST. A return trip is twice the one-way fare.

Shuttle, Taxi or Transfer

Shuttle, Taxi or Private Transfer from Medway?

Searching for a Medway airport shuttle usually turns up shared services that run from Sydney suburbs, not from the Highlands. We fill that gap with a private transfer — same door-to-door convenience, no other passengers, no detours to drop them off.

Compared with a metered taxi from Medway, the advantage is that you know the number before you get in. Compared with a shared shuttle, you are not waiting for other passengers or being dropped third. The fare is $279 either way.

Common Questions

Medway Transfers — Before You Book

How much is a transfer from Medway to Sydney Airport?

$279 one way as a fixed fare for one to two passengers, tolls and GST included. A return trip is $558. Larger groups move up a vehicle tier and each tier has its own published price on this page.

Why is Medway $279 when other suburbs are different?

Because the fare is built on the actual distance. Your run is 118 km, which works out at about $2.36 per kilometre. We publish all 54 suburb fares so you can see the logic rather than take our word for it.

Is a return trip from Sydney Airport cheaper?

No, and we would rather be straight about it than invent a discount. A return is simply two one-way fares: $558 for one to two passengers. The advantage is that the price is fixed in both directions, including the leg home at midnight.

What time would you collect me in Medway for a 6am international flight?

Around 1:00am. That allows three hours for international check-in, 1 hr 45 min of driving and a fifteen-minute buffer. The fare is the standard $279, plus our $20 early-pickup fee for any pickup before 6am.

Can you take a group in one vehicle?

Up to eleven passengers in a single minibus, so a wedding party or a family group travels together on one fare instead of being split across cars that arrive at different times.

Do I pay anything when I book?

No. There is no deposit and we do not store your card. You pay the driver after drop-off, by cash, bank transfer or card (1.2% card surcharge), at the fare we confirmed in writing when you booked.

Do you cover the rest of the Wingecarribee area?

Yes. We serve all 54 suburbs across the Southern Highlands, Wollondilly, Goulburn Mulwaree and Kangaroo Valley, and every one of them has its own published fare rather than a zone estimate.

Do you supply baby and booster seats?

Yes, free, and we fit them before we arrive. Tell us the children's ages when you book. We do not charge for seats and we do not expect you to install them at the kerb.
