From Exeter to Western Sydney International: a shorter drive, an untolled route and the same fixed fare you would pay to Kingsford Smith. Exeter is a village of hedgerows and estates south of Moss Vale, on the road toward Bundanoon.
Wollondilly Airport Shuttle drives Exeter (NSW 2579) to Western Sydney International at Badgerys Creek — a fixed-fare private transfer, not a shared shuttle. The airport takes passengers, and it is 99 km from the Exeter general store and post office to the terminal, about 1 hr 25 min. That is 32 km shorter than the 131 km run to Kingsford Smith, and our route carries no tolls. The fare is $269 one way for one or two passengers, rising to $379 for eleven in one vehicle — the Sydney Airport run from here is $299. Nothing is payable in advance. Arrange it now and the morning looks after itself. Quote on 0494 915 995.

Every class includes the same things. Tolls and GST are inside the fare, child restraints are fitted before we leave at no cost, arrivals are tracked by flight number, and the fare is paid in advance to lock in your vehicle. The only thing that changes between cards is how many people and how much luggage fit.
The western run
Allow about 1 hr 25 min for the 99 km from the Exeter general store and post office to the terminal forecourt. Exeter to WSI joins the Hume at Sutton Forest and exits at Picton — shorter and cheaper than the eastern route.
The same trip to Kingsford Smith is 131 km and about 1 hr 53 min, so Badgerys Creek saves 32 km — and, more usefully, it skips the M5 East and the airport tunnel, which is where the Mascot run loses its time on a bad morning.
Arriving rather than departing? The meeting points and free waiting times are on the Western Sydney Airport to Exeter page.
Departure timing, worked backwards
The shorter drive is the whole point, and it shows up as a later pickup rather than a cheaper fare. This is how the time is worked out.
Treat them as a starting point — school holidays and roadwork on The Northern Road both move the calculation, which is what we adjust for.
One terminal, one kerb
There is only one terminal at Badgerys Creek, so there is nothing to work out on arrival — the vehicle stops at the departures forecourt and the bags come out with you.
On the return leg we watch the flight number and meet you in arrivals with a name card — the waiting time after touchdown is included in the fare.
The outbound run starts at your door, at a pickup time we calculate from your flight rather than one you have to guess.
The other airport
Kingsford Smith is 131 km from Exeter and Badgerys Creek is 99 km. The new airport wins on distance by 32 km and on route quality by rather more than that, but the older one still has the wider network of long-haul destinations. Here are both, honestly.
about 1 hr 53 min · Hume, M5 and the airport tunnel
Where the long-haul network still is today, and where most flights out of this district leave from until the new airport's schedule fills out. Departure fares and leave-by times for Mascot are on the Exeter to Sydney Airport page.
about 1 hr 25 min · no tolls on our route
North through Sutton Forest onto the Hume, off at Picton, then up The Northern Road. Shorter and cheaper than the eastern route from this far south.
$299 to Sydney Airport, $269 to Western Sydney. The fare is set by your suburb and your group size, not by the terminal at the far end — so switching airports after booking does not change the number.
Get Free QuoteThe honest comparison
Badgerys Creek is a new airport with a road network built for it and a rail line that does not reach this district. That changes how the options compare.
| Option | Typical cost (2 adults) | Door to terminal | What it actually involves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer (us) | $269 fixed | ~1 hr 25 min, door to door | a fare fixed in advance and a car that is on the sheet rather than hoped for |
| Train or metro | Opal fares, plus getting yourself to the line | 2 hrs or more, with changes | the airport metro runs from St Marys, not from Exeter — you would need to reach it with your luggage first, which is the trip you were trying to avoid |
| Rideshare or taxi | metered, and surge-dependent | ~1 hr 25 min if a car accepts | exeter has a station with a very early last service |
| Drive and park | fuel and tolls plus from about $190 a week in budget long-stay parking | ~1 hr 25 min plus the car park shuttle | parking at a brand-new airport is untested at this stage, and it still means leaving a car sitting there for the length of the trip |
Fares, parking rates and the metro timetable at Western Sydney International will settle over its first months, so check anything time-sensitive before you rely on it. The honest summary for Exeter: for a departure from Badgerys Creek there is no realistic public transport option from this district, which is exactly why a fixed-fare car makes sense.
One vehicle, one fare
Eleven passengers and their luggage travel in one minibus for $379 — about $34 a seat, against three separate cars at whatever the apps are charging that morning. Everyone leaves at once and arrives at once.
Give us the headcount and a rough bag count when you book. If the group is flying out on two different flights, say so and we will either run two pickups or hold one vehicle — a much easier decision now than at 4am.
Booked car or app
A metered or surge-priced trip of 99 km has no ceiling until it ends. Yours was $269 the moment you booked.
An app at 4am in this district is a hope, not a plan. A pre-booked driver is on the sheet with your address and your flight number.
Cases carried to the boot and out again at the forecourt, with child restraints already fitted — not an argument about whether the pram fits.
Why pre-book the western run
You pay your suburb's published price whether you fly from Badgerys Creek or Mascot. Its own fare, usually below Sydney Airport.
The run from here goes up The Northern Road rather than through the M5 East and the airport tunnel — and the toll saving is already inside your fixed fare.
A single building means no guessing between domestic and international, and no shuttle bus between them.
There is no separate deposit: the fixed fare is paid in advance to confirm your booking and lock in the vehicle. You pay in advance by card or PayID, or cash by arrangement.
We are taking bookings now on exactly the same terms as every other run.
Capsules, forward-facing seats and boosters, installed before we arrive and included in the fare.

Questions, answered plainly
Between $269 and $379, decided by how many seats you need. Each destination has its own fare: from Exeter, Badgerys Creek is $269 and Mascot $299.
You can book a transfer for any date from then, and payment in advance confirms the booking.
99 km, normally around 1 hr 25 min. Kingsford Smith is 131 km from here, so the new airport saves 32 km and the tolled section with it.
Yes — 99 km against 131 km, a saving of 32 km, and our route to it carries no tolls. For 74 of the 75 suburbs we serve, Western Sydney is the closer airport; Darkes Forest on the escarpment is the single exception.
Straight to the departures door of the one terminal. Nothing to work out on arrival, and the driver carries the luggage rather than just unlocking the boot.
Yes. Payment in advance confirms the booking and locks in your vehicle. You pay in advance by card or PayID, or cash by arrangement, with a tax invoice emailed afterwards if you want one.
We work backwards from your boarding time: about three hours at the terminal for an international departure and two hours for a domestic one, plus the 1 hr 25 min drive and a traffic allowance.
Any hour, including public holidays; set fees apply for pickups before 6am or after 8pm. A 3am start is a normal shift rather than a special request.
There is a metro planned for the airport itself, but it does not come anywhere near Exeter — reaching it means a drive or several changes before you even start, which is usually the trip you were trying to avoid.
Eleven is the maximum in a single vehicle, at $379 for the group. That is almost always less than two or three separate cars, and it keeps everyone together.
All three types, free, and installed before the vehicle leaves for your address. Give us the ages at booking.
Message or call and we move it at no cost. Change or cancel free with at least 24 hours' notice and the fare is refunded in full; inside 24 hours a cancellation fee applies.
Both, each with its own published fare. Kingsford Smith is 131 km from here — the distances, leave-by times and terminal details are on the Exeter to Sydney Airport page.
Luggage decides the vehicle, not the passenger count. Bulky items such as golf clubs, skis, surfboards and bikes are $10 each; tell us at booking.
Only your group. We do not combine bookings, so the drive is direct.
Twenty-four to forty-eight hours is comfortable, and further ahead over school holidays and Christmas. For the opening weeks of the new airport, earlier is better — the first schedules will be busy.
The passenger terminal is the usual drop, but the aerotropolis precinct around it is the same run and the same fare. Give us the exact address when you book.
