Sydney AirportGetting out of Sydney Airport can seem confusing
with all of the options. Do you take the train? A bus? Or how about
renting a car?
All the most popular car rental companies have depots there. And even those of us intrepid travellers who plan on scrimping with
public transport just to get from A to B should give the rental car
idea a second look, especially if you look at booking a car hire Sydney Airport deal through Carhire.com.au.
There is simple but crucial reason for this. Car rental for a day can work out cheaper
than getting you and yours simply as far as the CBD one-way. And
booking with Carhire means you've got access to the specials on offer
with Avis, Thrifty, Budget, Europcar, and Hertz all in the one place.
So when you finally squeeze your way past the crowds at the baggage
claim section, you could hop in a taxi. Sure, it’s convenient, and you
don’t have your nose crammed in the armpit of a fellow train commuter,
but check out the prices. Visit Sydney Airport -- Taxi Information to see that a typical one-way trip to the CBD, based on non-peak hour traffic,
will cost around $25. And you’ll pay for any road and bridge tolls.
Heading to somewhere like Manly will set you back a sweet $50.
Taking the train is definitely cheaper -- if you’re travelling by
yourself. But
tickets, one-way to the CBD, cost $11 for adults and $7.50 for kids. So
if you’re travelling with someone else, with the family/ group of mates
or business colleagues, then it might be a good idea to think about
hiring out a car. Then you'd have personal transport for an entire 24
hours.
