Arriving and departing from Sydney airport: Where to go

With three terminals and a lot of pick up options, Sydney airport is easiest to navigate when you know what to expect. That’s why we have gathered some useful tips on where to go when you’re in Australia’s largest airport. If you’re arriving at the domestic terminals, we suggest choosing from the available pick up points, which include priority pick up, express pick up and blue emu pick up. If you’re in a hurry, priority is best because it’s the closest. But it does cost a minimum of $4. Express is the next closest option, followed by blue emu. Blue Emu is offsite, so you’ll need to catch the scheduled shuttle to get to and from the terminals. If you’re leaving from the domestic terminals, drop off options are pretty straightforward. All you need to do is go to the departures level at the terminal from which you’re departing.

If you’re flying internationally, the best place to be collected is the express pick up section in the P9 car park. There, drivers can wait for up to fifteen minutes without charge. If you’re leaving from the international terminal, simply go to the departures level. You can find disabled spaces at the departures level as well, for those who need them.
