Airport Transport

The first thing you should arrange after arriving in Australia is transport from the airport to your accommodation. This can be prepared pre-departure or arranged after you’ve arrived at the airport. Below are a range of available airport transport options:

Taxis

Taxis are a no-fuss way of getting to your accommodation. You can usually book one at a service kiosk available at the airport, or pre-book one online. If you’re bringing with you a large amount of baggage, remember to add that information when booking, so that the taxi service can provide you with a vehicle to accommodate your needs. Although taxis are easily accessible and convenient, they fall on the expensive side of airport transport.

Airport Buses and Trains

When heading to and from the airport in Melbourne, you have the option of either Skybus or public transport buses. Remember, public transport buses require a myki pass, while you can easily book a Skybus ticket online or at the airport. For Sydney, trains offer a more convenient airport travel option than buses, running every 10 minutes. Don't have an opal card? No worries – you can buy one at the train station or pay using Amex, Visa, or Mastercard. Explore seamless airport transportation with ease. In Adelaide there are dedicated buses that go from the Airport to the CBD, and to travel to Geelong you can transfer via Skybus from the International Airport to Melbourne's Southern Cross Railway Station to catch a train to Geelong City

Shuttle Buses and Limousines

There are a number of independent shuttle buses and limousines available at the airport. They’re a cost-effective way of getting to your destination. You can access them online and pre-book them in preparation for your arrival, or book them at the kiosks available at the airport.

Uber

Uber is a new, cost-effective and convenient way to get to your destination without much hassle. However, you’ll need a stable internet connection, an Uber account and a credit or debit card that can take Australian online transactions to be able to use their services, which may not be accessible to an International student who has just arrived in Australia.
