From Douglas Park to Western Sydney International: a shorter drive, an untolled route and the same fixed fare you would pay to Kingsford Smith. Douglas Park is a river village on the Nepean between Campbelltown and Picton, quiet and largely rural.
Wollondilly Airport Shuttle drives Douglas Park (NSW 2569) to Western Sydney International at Badgerys Creek — a fixed-fare private transfer, not a shared shuttle. The airport takes passengers, and it is 44 km from the Douglas Park shops on Douglas Park Drive to the terminal, about 48 min. That is 22 km shorter than the 66 km run to Kingsford Smith, and our route carries no tolls. The fare is $169 one way for one or two passengers, rising to $239 for eleven in one vehicle — the Sydney Airport run from here is $209. Nothing is payable in advance. Book it with the flight and there is nothing left to arrange. Quote on 0427 143 612.

Matched to your group
Four classes, from a sedan for two to an eleven-seat minibus. The only difference between them is how many people and how much luggage fit.
01
1–2 passengers
Toyota Camry, Lexus or similar
02
3–4 passengers
Kia Carnival or similar
03
5–6 passengers
LDV G10 or similar
04
7–11 passengers
Toyota HiAce or similar
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 48 min for the 44 km from the Douglas Park shops on Douglas Park Drive to the terminal forecourt. Douglas Park to WSI runs up through Camden and is meaningfully shorter than the trip to Kingsford Smith.
The same trip to Kingsford Smith is 66 km and about 1 hr 3 min, so Badgerys Creek saves 22 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 Douglas Park page.
Departure timing, worked backwards
We plan the pickup from your boarding time, not from a round number. The gain at Badgerys Creek is that the drive in front of it is shorter.
Rough figures until we have the flight. Once we do, the pickup is set against your boarding time rather than against an average.
One terminal, one kerb
Western Sydney International has a single terminal, which makes the drop straightforward: we pull into the forecourt, take the bags out and you walk in. No terminal to guess at and no interchange between domestic and international.
Returning, it works the same way in reverse: flight tracked from wheels-down, driver waiting in arrivals, and no charge for the delay.
Pickup is from your driveway at a time set by the flight, with nobody else in the vehicle and nothing else on the run sheet.
The other airport
Kingsford Smith is 66 km from Douglas Park and Badgerys Creek is 44 km. The new airport wins on distance by 22 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 3 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 Douglas Park to Sydney Airport page.
about 48 min · no tolls on our route
North through Camden and up The Northern Road, avoiding the Hume entirely. Meaningfully shorter than the eastern trip and on roads that are empty at the hours flights depart.
$209 to Sydney Airport, $169 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) | $169 fixed | ~48 min, door to door | a fixed published fare, straight from your door to the departures kerb |
| 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 Douglas Park — 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 | ~48 min if a car accepts | the station shuts early and the village has nothing else |
| Drive and park | fuel and tolls plus from about $190 a week in budget long-stay parking | ~48 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 Douglas Park: 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 $239 — about $22 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 44 km has no ceiling until it ends. Yours was $169 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
You pay your suburb's published price whether you fly from Badgerys Creek or Mascot. Its own fare, usually below Sydney Airport.
The run from here goes up The Northern Road rather than through the M5 East and the airport tunnel — and the toll saving is already inside your fixed fare.
A single building means no guessing between domestic and international, and no shuttle bus between them.
No deposit and no card held. You pay the driver when you get there, by card, cash or PayID.
We are taking bookings now on exactly the same terms as every other run.
Capsules, forward-facing seats and boosters, installed before we arrive and included in the fare.

Questions, answered plainly
A fixed $169 one way for one or two passengers, up to $239 for eleven in one vehicle. It is your suburb's published Western Sydney fare, $169; Kingsford Smith is $209.
You can book a transfer for any date from then, and no deposit is taken.
About 48 min for the 44 km. That is 22 km shorter than the run to Kingsford Smith, and the route avoids the M5 East and the airport tunnel entirely.
It is: 44 km rather than 66 km. The distance saving is 22 km and the drive skips the M5 East, which is the part of the Mascot run most likely to cost you twenty minutes.
Straight to the departures door of the one terminal. Nothing to work out on arrival, and the driver carries the luggage rather than just unlocking the boot.
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 48 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.
Not usefully from Douglas Park. 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.
One eleven-seat minibus takes the lot for $239. Beyond eleven we run a second vehicle and quote it in advance.
All three types, free, and installed before the vehicle leaves for your address. Give us the ages at booking.
One message reschedules it. No money has changed hands, so a change costs you nothing.
Both, each with its own published fare. Kingsford Smith is 66 km from here — the distances, leave-by times and terminal details are on the Douglas Park to Sydney Airport page.
Luggage decides the vehicle, not the passenger count. Bulky items such as golf clubs, skis, surfboards and bikes are $10 each; tell us at booking.
Only your group. We do not combine bookings, so the drive is direct.
Twenty-four to forty-eight hours is comfortable, and further ahead over school holidays and Christmas. For the opening weeks of the new airport, earlier is better — the first schedules will be busy.
Anywhere in the airport precinct, at the same price. The terminal forecourt is simply where most bookings end.
