The airport moved closer. Private transfers from Berrima (the sandstone village on the Wingecarribee, preserved almost entirely as it was built) to Badgerys Creek, priced before you book and paid on the day you travel.
Wollondilly Airport Shuttle drives Berrima (NSW 2577) to Western Sydney International at Badgerys Creek — a fixed-fare private transfer, not a shared shuttle. The airport takes passengers, and it is 80 km from the Berrima village green on Wingecarribee Street to the terminal, about 1 hr 14 min. That is 32 km shorter than the 112 km run to Kingsford Smith, and our route carries no tolls. The fare is $259 one way for one or two passengers, rising to $369 for eleven in one vehicle — the Sydney Airport run from here is $289. Nothing is payable in advance. Send the flight number and we set the pickup around it. Quote on 0427 143 612.
Fixed fare, each airport
A published fare for each airport: $289 for one or two passengers from Berrima to Western Sydney, with fixed steps up for larger groups.
| Passengers | Vehicle | Fixed fare (one way) | Typical booking |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 | Sedan | $259 | one or two travellers |
| 3 | Kia Carnival | $279 | a small family |
| 4 | Kia Carnival | $279 | four with luggage |
| 5 | People Mover | $309 | holiday departures |
| 6 | People Mover | $309 | two families travelling together |
| 7 | Minibus | $339 | extended families |
| 8 | Minibus | $339 | cruise passengers with full cases |
| 9 | Minibus | $369 | guests travelling as one group |
| 10 | Minibus | $369 | group and club travel |
| 11 | Minibus | $369 | the largest single vehicle |
That price is final. It covers tolls and GST, one suitcase and one carry-on per passenger and any child restraints, and it is paid to the driver on the day rather than at booking. No advance payment and no card hold — you pay on the day of travel. Fares reviewed August 2026.
Does WSI have its own fare? Yes — $259 for one or two passengers, against $289 to Kingsford Smith, because the price follows the distance from your street and the vehicle you need.
Matched to your group
Passengers and luggage set the vehicle, and we settle that when you book rather than working it out in your driveway.

Every class includes the same things. Tolls and GST are inside the fare, child restraints are fitted before we leave at no cost, arrivals are tracked by flight number, and there is no advance payment — you pay on the day of travel. The only thing that changes between cards is how many people and how much luggage fit.
The western run
Allow about 1 hr 14 min for the 80 km from the Berrima village green on Wingecarribee Street to the terminal forecourt. Berrima to WSI runs north on the Hume and exits at Picton, avoiding the tolled sections altogether.
The same trip to Kingsford Smith is 112 km and about 1 hr 42 min, so Badgerys Creek saves 32 km — and, more usefully, it skips the M5 East and the airport tunnel, which is where the Mascot run loses its time on a bad morning.
Arriving rather than departing? The meeting points and free waiting times are on the Western Sydney Airport to Berrima page.
Departure timing, worked backwards
Western Sydney International is a shorter drive than Mascot from here, so the alarm goes off later — but the terminal deadline works the same way. Here is how we set the pickup.
These are guides. Give us the flight number when you book and we set the exact time against it, including for the first wave of departures after the airport opens.
One terminal, one kerb
A single terminal is one of the quiet advantages of the new airport: no T1-versus-T3 confusion, no shuttle between buildings, just a forecourt and a door.
Coming back the other way, the driver meets you inside the arrivals area with your name, and the flight is tracked so a delay moves the pickup at no cost.
Going out, we collect you at your own address at a time worked back from the terminal deadline — not a meeting point down the road.
The other airport
Kingsford Smith is 112 km from Berrima and Badgerys Creek is 80 km. The new airport wins on distance by 32 km and on route quality by rather more than that, but the older one still has the wider network of long-haul destinations. Here are both, honestly.
about 1 hr 42 min · Hume, M5 and the airport tunnel
Where the long-haul network still is today, and where most flights out of this district leave from until the new airport's schedule fills out. Departure fares and leave-by times for Mascot are on the Berrima to Sydney Airport page.
about 1 hr 14 min · no tolls on our route
Onto the Hume at the Berrima exit, north and off at Picton for The Northern Road. Avoids the tolled sections altogether and comes in well under the eastern distance.
$289 to Sydney Airport, $259 to Western Sydney. The fare is set by your suburb and your group size, not by the terminal at the far end — so switching airports after booking does not change the number.
Get Free QuoteThe honest comparison
Badgerys Creek is a new airport with a road network built for it and a rail line that does not reach this district. That changes how the options compare.
| Option | Typical cost (2 adults) | Door to terminal | What it actually involves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer (us) | $259 fixed | ~1 hr 14 min, door to door | a published price, your own vehicle, and a driver who is already rostered for the morning |
| Train or metro | Opal fares, plus getting yourself to the line | 2 hrs or more, with changes | the airport metro runs from St Marys, not from Berrima — you would need to reach it with your luggage first, which is the trip you were trying to avoid |
| Rideshare or taxi | metered, and surge-dependent | ~1 hr 14 min if a car accepts | guest-house arrivals are common, often as groups off one flight |
| Drive and park | fuel and tolls plus from about $190 a week in budget long-stay parking | ~1 hr 14 min plus the car park shuttle | parking at a brand-new airport is untested at this stage, and it still means leaving a car sitting there for the length of the trip |
Fares, parking rates and the metro timetable at Western Sydney International will settle over its first months, so check anything time-sensitive before you rely on it. The honest summary for Berrima: for a departure from Badgerys Creek there is no realistic public transport option from this district, which is exactly why a fixed-fare car makes sense.
One vehicle, one fare
Eleven passengers and their luggage travel in one minibus for $369 — about $34 a seat, against three separate cars at whatever the apps are charging that morning. Everyone leaves at once and arrives at once.
Give us the headcount and a rough bag count when you book. If the group is flying out on two different flights, say so and we will either run two pickups or hold one vehicle — a much easier decision now than at 4am.
Booked car or app
A metered or surge-priced trip of 80 km has no ceiling until it ends. Yours was $259 the moment you booked.
An app at 4am in this district is a hope, not a plan. A pre-booked driver is on the sheet with your address and your flight number.
Cases carried to the boot and out again at the forecourt, with child restraints already fitted — not an argument about whether the pram fits.
Why pre-book the western run
A published fare per suburb for each airport, Badgerys Creek and Mascot alike.
The line we drive west never touches the M5 East, which is the part of the Mascot run that goes wrong most often.
One building, one forecourt, and a road network built for it rather than retrofitted around it.
No deposit, no pre-authorisation, no card on file — you settle with the driver on the day.
Departures can be booked today on the ordinary terms.
Capsules and boosters fitted before the vehicle leaves for your address, at no charge.

Who you are booking with
Locally owned and run from the shire — the driver taking you to Badgerys Creek works for this business, not for a broker it was sold on to.

Questions, answered plainly
A fixed $259 one way for one or two passengers, up to $369 for eleven in one vehicle. It is your suburb's published Western Sydney fare, $259; Kingsford Smith is $289.
We are taking bookings for departures from that date now, on exactly the same terms as every other run — fixed fare, nothing payable in advance.
Roughly 1 hr 14 min to cover 80 km. The saving against the 112 km Mascot run is 12 km, and more importantly it is a run that does not go through the tunnel.
Closer by 32 km — 80 km versus 112 km. Whether it is the right airport still depends on where your flight goes from, but on distance alone it wins.
At the departures forecourt. Western Sydney International has a single terminal building, so there is no guessing between domestic and international and no shuttle between them — the vehicle stops at the door and the bags come out with you.
Nothing up front and no pre-authorisation. The fare is settled at the terminal on the day, however you prefer to pay.
From your boarding time, not a round number. Give us the flight number and we set the exact pickup around the 1 hr 14 min drive.
Any hour, including public holidays; set fees apply for pickups before 6am or after 8pm. A 3am start is a normal shift rather than a special request.
Rail serves the airport from St Marys, not from Berrima. Getting to that line with checked bags is the problem the transfer solves.
Eleven is the maximum in a single vehicle, at $369 for the group. That is almost always less than two or three separate cars, and it keeps everyone together.
Capsules, forward-facing seats and boosters, all fitted before we arrive and all at no extra cost. We need the children's ages when you book rather than on the morning.
Message or call and we move it at no cost. Because nothing is charged in advance, there is no cancellation fee and nothing to refund.
Both, each with its own published fare. Kingsford Smith is 112 km from here — the distances, leave-by times and terminal details are on the Berrima to Sydney Airport page.
The vehicle is chosen from your bag count as much as your headcount, and the driver loads and unloads it. A sedan takes two large cases and two carry-ons; the minibus takes eleven people's worth.
Yours alone. There is no shared loop and no interchange — the word shuttle is in our name because of the route, not because you share the car.
Anything from a day ahead usually works, though the holiday periods and the airport's first months fill earlier.
The passenger terminal is the usual drop, but the aerotropolis precinct around it is the same run and the same fare. Give us the exact address when you book.
