Airport trains are the bomb. Beats a taxi in Sydney any day.

Sydney Airport link is great, minus the $15 flat fee that increases during peak times. If I worked at the airport, I would probably take the bus to avoid paying $40 on top of the other Opal charges.

The price hasn't come through yet (tapped on with phone figuring it would be cheaper then taxi). And 45mins to get across to the north suburbs is pretty good.

Yeah, it's better than our transport to the airport. Hehe. I think it costs around the same as the skybus.
