Sydney Airport to Bondi

Avatar

Hey peeps, I’m flying into Sydney Friday morning and wanna know whats the easiest way to get from the airport to Bondi?
Im thinking I might just get a cab to avoid messing around too much.
Thoughts?

Cab is easy - but there might be a massive queue.

Just catch the train,

You will have to change at Central or town hall for the Bondi Junction service.

Heaps of cabs at the airport so you should be fine even if there are ques.

The airport line on the train is very expensive plus it takes about 40mins once you change over.. so I would say cab would prob be only a little more expensive plus far less hassle.

Otherwise hop on a route 400 bus and it goes to Bondi junction which will probably be the cheapest option but takes around an hour! Beware though as you may have to pre purchase a ticket - best to check beforehand!

Maybe book an airport shuttle service? Should be cheaper than a cab.. And drop you where you need to go.. And if its prebooked. No waiting inline for a cab or train.. smile

I just know what the queue is like on a Friday morning!!

He is flying in during peak hour!

I would cab it - but if the queue is huge I would train it!

Cab is gonna be most likely outcome asside from a lift. I hate public transport! If I had a longboard not my normal board with me I’d be tempted to skate the whole way hahaha

The 389 bus is your friend. Will bring you straight to my house. The 380 will take you down to the beach. Both leave from Bondi Junction.

What are you doing in Bondi? I am up in Bronte Friday night and Sat day.

Keen for a wave Saturday morning? Looks like it might be kind of fun.
