It is 44 km from Couridjah in the Wollondilly Shire to Western Sydney Airport (WSI) at Badgerys Creek, opening 25 October 2026, and in normal traffic we allow 58 min behind the wheel. You're on the Wollondilly side of the Highlands, which is the closest corner of our service area to Sydney — the run down the Hume is short enough that a mid-morning flight doesn't need a pre-dawn start.
You pay $185 one way — published and fixed. Tolls, fuel and GST are already in it; an airport pickup adds $10 and a pickup before 6am adds $20.
Nothing is charged when you book. There is no deposit, no card held on file and no cancellation fee — you settle with the driver once you have been dropped off.
Worked back from the check-in cut-off, the 58 min drive and a fifteen-minute buffer. These are the times we would suggest from Couridjah; we confirm them with you when you book.

Couridjah is one of the closest suburbs we serve to Sydney — 3 of our 54 pickup points sit nearer the city, which is why the fare is at the lower end of our range. The nearest comparison points are Tahmoor at 80 km and Thirlmere at 83 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits. Within the Wollondilly corridor zone the typical run is 83 km; yours is 39 km shorter than that.
Worked as a rate, this run costs about $4.20 per kilometre against a network median of $2.97. We publish every suburb so you can check that logic yourself rather than take our word for it.
There is no scheduled airport shuttle bus running out of Couridjah. What people usually mean by an airport shuttle here is a private door-to-door transfer, which is what we run: we collect you from your address rather than a stop, and the vehicle is yours alone.
Compared with a metered taxi from Couridjah, 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 $185 either way.
$185 one way as a fixed fare for one to two passengers, tolls and GST included. A return trip is $370. Larger groups move up a vehicle tier and each tier has its own published price on this page.
We wait at the terminal's designated pick-up point rather than inside the arrivals hall. We text you the exact spot before you land, and we monitor the flight so a delay costs you nothing.
Around 1:45am. That allows three hours for international check-in, 58 min of driving and a fifteen-minute buffer. The fare is the standard $185, plus our $20 early-pickup fee for any pickup before 6am.
About 58 min for the 44 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.
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.
Yes. Pre-dawn departures are the bulk of our work, seven days. A 1:42am pickup is a normal booking for us: the $185 fare plus our $20 early-pickup fee (any pickup before 6am).
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.
No, and we would rather be straight about it than invent a discount. A return is simply two one-way fares: $370 for one to two passengers. The advantage is that the price is fixed in both directions, including the leg home at midnight.
No quote-by-phone games. Book in two minutes, or call and talk to a real person.
