About  Canberra

First time visiting Canberra in a while? Here are some helpful insights around Australia's capital city.
About the Canberra Airport

Canberra Airport is the main International airport serving not just the city of Canberra, but more so, the entire Australian Capital Territory as well as southeastern NSW. The airport handles just over three million passengers a year, making it the eighth busiest in Australia. Canberra  Airport airport is located approximately eight kilometres from the heart of the city in North Canberra district.

Getting to the Canberra Airport

Given the distance from the CBD, getting to the airport should be relatively hassle-free. That said, we have compiled a list of ETA’s from the city’s surrounding suburbs, so you can plan your pick up time with accuracy. The ETA’s assume light traffic.

Depending on the traffic and the route you use, it will take you anywhere from ten to fifteen minutes to get from the city centre to the airport. This estimated time of arrival applies anywhere in the North Canberra district. From most areas in South Canberra, the estimated time of arrival is anywhere from fifteen to twenty minutes. Plan for a similar ETA if you’re transferring from Woden. If you’re coming from Belconnen, give yourself an allowance of about twenty-five to thirty minutes. The same applies for Weston Creek, Tuggeranong and Gungahlin.

Getting out of the Canberra Airport

There are several ways to get to the city from Canberra International Airport. You could use the city’s public transport system, take a taxi or a rental car. You could also use a shuttle service or a private transfer service like ours.

For those using the bus, Transport Canberra runs a bus to and fro the airport, seven days a week and even during holidays. The bus ticket vending machine can be found at the arrivals hall in the airport. The taxies will be waiting for you on the ground floor of the airport terminal building. For more information on the rates visit canberra airport’s website. There are also several bush shuttle services that operate within the airport.  They offer door to door services in and around the city. For more information refer to the airport’s website.

Frequently asked questions

Questions? Here are some answers.
What areas of Sydney do you service?

We cover all of the Sydney greater region and surrounds, but these are some of our most popular serviced suburbs:

- The Sydney CBD
- North Sydney
- North Ryde
- Chatswood
- Baulkham Hills
- Manly
- Newport
- Collaroy
- St Ives
- Bondi

Please note, because we only use real hire cars that have access to bus lanes, we do quite a bit of transfers to and from the north shore as bus lane access from those suburbs is crucial and in some cases can save up to 60 minutes of travel time.

Some of the most popular suburbs in Sydney for corporates are North Ryde where most of the tech companies are based as well as pharma companies. Then we have the business hubs of Chatswood and North Sydney.

But no suburb is out of reach and we also do lengthy transfers as far as Orange, Bathurst, and we have even taken some people to Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra when there has been dire delays and flight cancellations at Sydney Airport.

What if our flight is delayed? Or cancelled?

If your flight is delayed it's okay! Our driver monitors your flight information, and will have real time updates on your planes whereabouts.

If your flight is cancelled all you need to do is call us with your new flight details, or update them on your app.

Where do I meet drivers? What do I do if I can't see him/her?

We have meeting points all across Australia, these are listed in the confirmation of your transfer sheet, and most importantly please turn your phone on and you will get a text from the driver, any issues you can also contact us on our 24/7 hotline +61413905215

Can I book a guest and pay for it?

Yes you can, and the guest will not need to pay in the car, but it’s also a good idea to make sure that we have their contact number to make sure the transfer goes smoothly, and we also mask all phone numbers

Do you have an app?

We have both Android and iOS apps, and you can book through the app if you are the traveller, and track the driver and communicate with them as well through the app.
