Pick up Information for Sydney Airport

Sydney airport comprises two domestic terminals and one international terminal. Throughout all terminals, you will have access to free Wi-Fi, entertainment, shopping and, most importantly, pick up and drop off areas. In T1 – the international terminal – you can follow the yellow signs to get to the express pick up zone. This is situated within the P9 car park. You can get to the drop off zone by going to the departure level, but please note that you cannot wait in this area for more than a minute or so.

In the domestic terminals, you will have more pick up and drop off options. Some of your options are:

  • Kerbside pick up and drop off on the arrivals and departures levels of T2 and T3. This includes disabled access.
  • Priority pick up is approximately four minutes from the terminals, on foot. This area is marked with green signage from the arrivals forecourt for passengers, and upon entering the domestic precinct for drivers. Access to priority pick up begins at $4 for drivers, who must have an e-Tag to make the payment.
  • Express pick up is the next option, located an eight minute walk from the terminals. There are yellow signs directing drivers and passengers to the express area, and these signs will direct drivers into the right lane of the precinct.
  • The Blue Emu pick up facility is another great initiative by the Sydney airport. It is located off site a little way, but there is a shuttle bus that transports passengers between the terminals and the Blue Emu area every 10-15 minutes. It is well signed for drivers along the M5 and Ross Smith Avenue.
