Airport

The closest airport to the meeting venue is Sydney Airport.

Ground Transportation

A taxi from the airport to the meeting venue or any of the listed hotels will cost between $30 and $50, depending on traffic. There's generally only a short wait to get a taxi, and a fairly orderly queue. This is probably the most convenient, and also the cheapest if you share with others...

If staying in Chinatown, the airport train line is reasonably convenient. A one-way ticket is $16.40. If you're staying in Pyrmont, you can still take the train, then jump on the light rail from 'Central' to 'the Star'. You'll need to pay $4.60 (in cash) after boarding the train.

Some hotels offer complimentary bus transfers to/from the airport - check with your hotel when booking.

Offsite Amenities

TBA

Currency

The local currency is the Australian dollar (AUD). See currency converter for current conversion rates.
