Sydney Airport transfer FAQs
Common questions about Airporter's private Sydney Airport transfer service.
Are Airporter prices fixed?
Yes. Airporter uses fixed fares for listed service areas, with separate prices for Sydney Airport drop-offs and airport pickups.
Are tolls and airport pickup fees included?
Yes. Fixed Airporter fares include standard tolls and standard Sydney Airport access fees where applicable.
Does submitting the form confirm my booking?
No. An enquiry does not confirm a booking. After checking availability and trip details, we’ll send your confirmed fare, including GST, with a secure Stripe link for the 50% deposit.
Does my quote expire?
No. Your quote holds availability without an automatic expiry.
When is my booking confirmed?
Your booking is confirmed in writing once we’ve checked the deposit payment.
How much is the deposit?
The deposit is 50% of your confirmed fare. After checking availability and trip details, we’ll send your confirmed fare, including GST, with a secure Stripe link for the 50% deposit.
How do I pay the balance?
The remaining 50% is payable at pickup before departure, or earlier on request. At pickup, you can pay by contactless card or mobile wallet using Tap to Pay.
Do fares include GST?
Yes. All fares shown include GST, and the confirmed fare we send you includes GST.
What happens if I cancel?
Cancel at least 24 hours before pickup and you receive a full refund: a refund of all amounts paid to Airporter for the cancelled transfer, including the deposit and any prepaid balance, without deducting payment-processing fees. For later cancellations and no-shows, reasonable cancellation-related costs or loss are reviewed individually. Any amount retained is capped at the 50% deposit, with any excess refunded. The remaining balance is not charged automatically.
How do cancellations work for return bookings?
For return bookings, the airport drop-off and the airport pickup are separate transfers. When cancelling, tell us which transfer you are cancelling; the 24-hour notice period and refund apply to that transfer. For a late cancellation or no-show, any amount retained is limited to reasonable cancellation-related costs or loss, capped at 50% of the agreed fare for the cancelled transfer only. Payments allocated to another transfer are unaffected unless that transfer is also cancelled.
What if my flight is delayed?
Flight delays are reviewed individually before a passenger is treated as a no-show.
Can I reschedule my trip?
Reschedule with at least 24 hours’ notice and there is no change fee, subject to availability and any agreed fare difference.
What if Airporter can't provide my transfer?
If Airporter cannot provide the transfer, you receive a full refund: a refund of all amounts paid to Airporter for the cancelled transfer, including the deposit and any prepaid balance, without deducting payment-processing fees.
Which areas are serviced?
The North Shore, Hornsby and nearby northern suburbs, and the Northern Beaches from Manly to Palm Beach.
How many passengers can travel?

How much luggage fits?
Approximately two large suitcases plus two to three small or medium bags, depending on passenger numbers and luggage size.
Are child seats supplied?
