What does the run from Camden to Badgerys Creek cost?
$109 for a couple, rising in fixed steps to $169 for a full eleven-seat minibus. Western Sydney has its own published price list, usually below the Sydney Airport fare.
When does Western Sydney Airport actually open?
You can book a transfer for any date from then, and no deposit is taken.
How long does it take to drive from Camden to Badgerys Creek?
25 km, normally around 29 min. Kingsford Smith is 56 km from here, so the new airport saves 31 km and the tolled section with it.
Should I use Badgerys Creek or Mascot?
Closer by 31 km — 25 km versus 56 km. Whether it is the right airport still depends on where your flight goes from, but on distance alone it wins.
Where exactly do you drop off at Western Sydney Airport?
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.
Do I pay before I travel?
No. Nothing is charged at booking and no card is held. You pay the driver on the day of travel by card, cash or PayID, with a tax invoice emailed afterwards if you want one.
How early do we need to leave Camden?
From your boarding time, not a round number. Give us the flight number and we set the exact pickup around the 29 min drive.
Is there a night service to the new airport?
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.
Could I get to Badgerys Creek by train or bus instead?
Not usefully from Camden. A metro line is being built to serve the airport, but it runs between St Marys and the terminal rather than out to this district, so you would still need to get yourself across to it with your luggage.
Can eleven of us travel in one vehicle?
Yes — eleven passengers and their luggage in one minibus for $169, about $15 a seat. One vehicle leaves once and arrives once, which matters more than the saving when there is a check-in deadline.
Are child seats included?
Yes and no charge. The ages matter at booking so the right restraints are already in the car.
What happens if the airline moves my flight?
One message reschedules it. No money has changed hands, so a change costs you nothing.
Do you cover both airports?
Both, each with its own published fare. Kingsford Smith is 56 km from here — the distances, leave-by times and terminal details are on the Camden to Sydney Airport page.
Can you take skis, golf clubs or a pram?
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.
Is it a private car or a shared shuttle?
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.
Is there a cut-off for booking?
Anything from a day ahead usually works, though the holiday periods and the airport's first months fill earlier.
Do you only serve the passenger terminal?
Terminal or precinct — both are covered by your suburb's published fare.
Which other localities nearby do you cover?
Oran Park, Camden South, Elderslie, Grasmere and the rest of the district — all 75 suburbs across Wollondilly Shire, Macarthur and the Southern Highlands, each with its own published fare and its own distance to Badgerys Creek.
