The trip home from Sydney Airport to Braemar — the industrial and residential edge of Mittagong, right beside the motorway — done as a private transfer: your name at the meeting point, your luggage in the boot, and one agreed fare with no meter running.
Wollondilly Airport Shuttle meets arriving passengers at Sydney Airport and drives them home to Braemar (NSW 2575) — a fixed-fare private transfer, not a shared shuttle. The driver waits in the P7 Rideshare Pickup Area at T1, or in the priority pickup area at T2 and T3, and the fare is $255 one way for one or two passengers, rising to $405 for eleven in one vehicle. It is 101 km from the terminal to the Braemar industrial estate entrance, about 1 hr 29 min. Your flight number does the work: the pickup moves with the aircraft, and the Braemar fare covers an hour of waiting at T1 or forty minutes at T2 and T3 from the moment the wheels touch. Nothing is payable in advance. Book it with your outbound trip and the whole thing is settled in one message. Quote on 0427 143 612.

A four-hour delay and Christmas Day cost the same as a Tuesday lunchtime arrival; set fees apply for pickups before 6am or after 8pm. Nothing is added afterwards. Nothing is charged at booking and no card is held; the fare is paid on the day. Fares reviewed August 2026.
One booking, both directions. Most people book the arrival at the same time as the departure — fixed fare, same driver pool, one less thing to think about while you are away.

The inclusions do not change with the vehicle. Every Braemar arrival carries tolls and GST inside the quoted fare, free child restraints fitted in advance, flight-number tracking and no payment until the day. Seats and boot space are the only difference between the four cards.
Terminal to door
Allow about 1 hr 29 min for the 101 km from the terminal to the Braemar industrial estate entrance. Off the Hume at Mittagong and you are essentially there. Braemar has the best motorway access in the Highlands and the shortest last leg, which makes it the most reliable arrival estimate in the Southern Highlands.
Traffic is asymmetric here. The queue that costs a 4am departure twenty minutes is on the other side of the road when you land, so arrival runs tend to come in at or under the estimate.
If you are flying out rather than in, the leave-by times and departure fares are on the Braemar to Sydney Airport page.
When the flight moves
Nobody plans for the flight to slip three hours, so we plan for it instead: the pickup tracks the aircraft, not the timetable. What follows is what happens in each case.
T1 arrivals carry sixty minutes of included waiting from touchdown, and the driver leaves for the airport based on where the aircraft actually is.
Domestic arrivals get forty minutes of free waiting, timed from the real landing rather than the printed one.
Cancellations and reroutes are handled by phone or text at no cost — there is no deposit sitting with us to argue about.
Give us the flight number rather than a landing time when you book — that is the single thing that makes the arrival look after itself.
Finding your driver
Clear customs and walk out into the arrivals hall. Your driver is waiting in the Rideshare Pickup Area inside P7, opposite T1 arrivals, and will take the cases from there to the vehicle.
Domestic arrivals are simpler: message the driver when you clear the belt and the vehicle pulls into the priority zone as you walk out.
After that the trip is yours alone: the car goes to your address and nowhere else. Mixed industrial and residential frontages. Tell us which and the driver will pick the right approach.
The second airport
Our arrival service starts the same day, at its own published fare.
about 1 hr 1 min · toll-free on our route
The return is quick and predictable with almost no local road at either end. Business travellers landing late at WSI get home considerably faster than they used to from Kingsford Smith. Route detail on the Braemar to WSI page.
about 1 hr 29 min · Hume, M5 and tunnel
Still the busier of the two for us: the P7 Rideshare Pickup Area at T1, priority pickup at the domestic terminals.
$255 from Sydney Airport; Western Sydney has its own published fare. Terminal and length of delay make no difference to the number, and nothing is added for a rail access fee because no train is involved.

The arrivals hall, tired and holding a trolley, is the worst place to weigh this up. Do it now instead.
| Option | Typical cost (2 adults) | Door to terminal | What it actually involves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer (us) | $255 fixed | ~1 hr 29 min, door to door | a driver already at the terminal, help with the luggage, and a fixed published fare |
| Train from the airport | Opal fares plus $18.61 station access fee each | 2 hrs or more, if it is running | rail gets you as far as Mittagong or Hill Top at best, with an $18.61 access fee each and somebody still needing to collect you from the platform at the other end |
| Rideshare or taxi | metered, and surge-dependent | ~1 hr 29 min if a car accepts | late business arrivals are more common here than elsewhere in the Highlands |
| Drive and park | fuel and tolls plus from about $190 a week in budget long-stay parking | ~1 hr 29 min plus the car park shuttle | only works if you drove yourself out and left the car there — and it means finding the car park shuttle after a long flight before you can start driving |
The station access fee is Transport for NSW's published charge for entering or leaving an airport rail station — check the current figure before you rely on it. The honest summary for an arrival into Braemar: rail can work in daylight with hand luggage, and stops working entirely once the flight is late, the bags are checked, or the last service has gone.
Arriving together
Eleven arriving passengers are met by one vehicle for $405 — about $37 a seat, against three separate taxis from the rank at whatever the meter says. Extended families, sports teams and friends landing together all book this way.
We need the flight number, the number of passengers and a rough bag count, and that is all. Split across two aircraft? Decide in advance whether you would rather everyone waited together or travelled in two runs.
Compared with the rank
Ranks are fine at 2pm on a Tuesday. They are not fine at 11pm when four international flights have landed inside forty minutes.
Metered pricing on a run this long depends on conditions you cannot see from the queue. A fixed fare removes the question.
A long one-way run with no return fare is not every driver's preference. Ours is dispatched knowing exactly where it goes.
Reasons to book ahead
The trip home is settled while you still have a keyboard and a signal, not while you are queuing with a trolley.
A driver waiting with your name is a very different arrival from one spent hunting a rank or a rideshare pin.
A full hour after touchdown at international and forty minutes at domestic, with no meter running.
Booking costs nothing and holds nothing. The money changes hands at the end of the trip, by card, cash or PayID, and we email the invoice afterwards if you want the paperwork.
Tell us the children's ages at booking and the restraints are installed before the vehicle leaves for the airport.
The last arrival of the night and Christmas morning are both normal shifts for a pre-booked car.

Questions about arrivals
One or two passengers pay $255; the largest vehicle, carrying eleven, is $405. The arrival price is the departure price plus a $10 pickup fee, with no loading for the date.
T1: cross to the P7 building opposite arrivals and meet the driver in the Rideshare Pickup Area inside it. T2 and T3: a text from the carousel, then the vehicle at the priority pickup point as you walk through the doors.
Allow 1 hr 29 min for the 101 km. It is the quicker of the two directions — the congestion that slows a pre-dawn departure sits on the other carriageway when you land.
Nothing, on your side. We track the flight number, so the pickup moves with the aircraft and a full hour of waiting from touchdown is included at T1, forty minutes at T2 and T3 — measured from when you actually land.
We reschedule it, at no charge. Nothing is paid up front, which is precisely why an airline cancellation is an inconvenience rather than a financial loss.
Not a cent. Booking holds nothing on your card; you pay on the day, at the door, and the tax invoice follows by email if you need it for work.
Yes, the address you give us is where the trip ends. Mixed industrial and residential frontages. Tell us which and the driver will pick the right approach.
Only partway. Mittagong or Hill Top is the practical limit, the airport station access fee is $18.61 a head on top of the Opal fare, and the remaining distance is a pickup you would have to arrange anyway.
On a quiet afternoon the rank is fine. On the night three widebodies land within the hour it is not, and a 101 km run at midnight is a fare some drivers decline outright. Yours is assigned and fixed before you board.
Yes. White Bay at Rozelle is 111 km and about 1 hr 49 min from Braemar; the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay is 113 km and about 1 hr 54 min. Disembarkation runs by luggage tag rather than a published time, so you message from the terminal doors and the driver is close by.
Yes, at that airport's own published fare. The free waiting and the door drop are the same, and the fare is that airport's own published price.
Yes, in an eleven-seat minibus at $405 for the whole group, which works out near $37 a head. Groups arriving on different flights are handled either by holding the vehicle or by running two pickups.
Free, and installed in advance. Tell us the ages at booking — the restraints go in before we drive to the airport, not in the pickup zone with you standing there.
Yes — the late bank of arrivals is routine work here. Late business arrivals are more common here than elsewhere in the Highlands.
Twenty-four to forty-eight hours is comfortable, and further ahead over school holidays and Christmas. Most people book it at the same time as the outbound trip, which is the simplest way to do it.
Message the driver. If the vehicle is already at the airport you will not be waiting long; if it is still on the way, we will tell you exactly how far off it is rather than leaving you guessing.
