Route and Fare

Distance, Duration and What it Costs

Woodlands sits 108 km from Sydney Airport (SYD) at Mascot — all terminals, domestic and international — a 1 hr 43 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.

$275 one way, and that is the whole number. Tolls and GST are inside it, the hour of the day does not change it, and nothing is added at the terminal.

There is no money up front at all. No deposit, no card on file, no cancellation charge. You pay the driver when the trip is done.

Shuttle, Taxi or Transfer

Woodlands Airport Shuttle or Private Transfer?

Searching for a Woodlands 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 Woodlands, 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 $275 either way.

How the Fare Is Set

How This Fare is Worked Out

Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 34 are further from Sydney than Woodlands and 19 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are Renwick at 107 km and Berrima at 112 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 $2.55 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.

Common Questions

Woodlands Transfers — Before You Book

How much is a transfer from Woodlands to Sydney Airport?

$275 one way as a fixed fare for one to two passengers, tolls and GST included. A return trip is $550. Larger groups move up a vehicle tier and each tier has its own published price on this page.

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

Around 1:00am. That allows three hours for international check-in, 1 hr 43 min of driving and a fifteen-minute buffer. The fare is the standard $275, plus our $20 early-pickup fee for any pickup before 6am.

How long does the drive from Woodlands take?

About 1 hr 43 min for the 108 km run in normal conditions. We add time for weekday morning traffic and we plan backwards from your flight or ship time rather than from a fixed departure.

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.

How much luggage can we bring from Woodlands?

Every fare allows one check-in bag and one carry-on per passenger. If you are carrying more than that, or something awkward like golf clubs, a pram or a cello, say so when you book and we will send a vehicle with the room. Extra bags are $5 each and bulky items such as golf clubs or skis $10 each.

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: $550 for one to two passengers. The advantage is that the price is fixed in both directions, including the leg home at midnight.

What if I need to cancel?

There is no cancellation fee, because nothing was charged up front. Let us know as early as you can so we can release the vehicle. For same-day changes, ring rather than email.

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.
