Departing from Albury Airport

Getting to Albury Airport

Albury Airport is only a short 10-minute drive from the CBD making getting there a breeze. The best part is that if you need to use the shuttle bus or grab a taxi, it won't cost much.

Book your ride with either Albury and Wodonga taxi services or the Border Shuttle Bus. All three companies meet scheduled flight arrivals 24/7 and can cater for wheelchair access upon request.

Parking at Albury Airport 

Planning on leaving your car at the airport? Albury has two different options to choose from:

• General parking is uncovered and can hold up to 300 vehicles. Leaving your car here for 7 hours or more costs AUD 12 and a weekly stay will set you back AUD 65.
• Covered parking offers passengers more security. It only has 100 spaces available and costs AUD 18 each day or AUD 105 for a whole week.

Arriving at Sydney Airport 

Getting from Sydney Airport to Your Hotel

Take the train if you want to avoid Sydney's traffic jams. It takes 13-minutes to reach the CBD, and trains leave the airport every 10-minutes from 5:00 a.m. to midnight.

A cheaper way to get from the airport to the CBD is with the public bus. Once you've collected your bags, go to the T3 Domestic Terminal and hop on bus 400 to reach the city for only AUD 5.60.

The taxi stands are located outside of each domestic terminal. A single trip to the city costs AUD 45-55 and takes about 20 minutes depending on the traffic.

If you're using a ride-sharing service like Uber, meet your driver at the priority pick-up area once you've requested your ride.

Want to hire your own car? You'll find the rental companies on the arrivals level of T2 and T3.

What should you pack when visiting Sydney?

For a Sydney stay during summer, light and airy pieces of clothing are well worth adding to your packing list. Choosing clothing made from natural fibres, such as cotton and linen, will help to wick moisture away from your skin too, keeping you cool as you explore the city. Summers in Sydney can be hot and sunny, so be sure to also pack a hat, a pair of sunglasses and some sunscreen before you board your flights from Albury to Sydney.

Autumn and spring are both great times to visit Sydney, offering lovely weather without the heat of summer. If you’re planning to stay in Sydney at either time of the year, you should be fine packing some jeans, t-shirts and a jacket. Temperature may be cooler at night and first thing in the morning, so be sure to pack an extra layer or two just in case.

If you’re thinking about booking Rex flights from Albury to Sydney that are due to arrive during winter, it’s a good idea to pack clothing that can be easily layered. While the mornings and evenings are particularly chilly, temperatures can rise throughout the day. Long pants or jeans, jumpers and coats are all well worth packing before you leave home on your Rex Albury to Sydney flights. If you plan to spend a decent amount of time outdoors during your stay in Sydney, a scarf and beanie may also be worth adding to your packing list.
