Not sure which size you need? Enter your passengers, suitcases and any child seats and we'll recommend the smallest vehicle that genuinely fits — golf bags, surfboards and prams included. Child seats take a passenger seat, so the tool counts them properly rather than leaving it to you.

Why book with us

Booking the Penrith to Western Sydney Airport run

  • The fare is fixed before you pay Shown in full before you leave your details, with typical tolls, the passenger service levy and GST inside the number. We confirm it with you on the call, and once you've paid, it does not move. No meter, no surge, no toll added afterwards.
  • We track the flight, not the clock Your booking carries the flight number. If you land early or late, the pickup time moves with it — you are not paying for a driver who left on the scheduled time.
  • Up to 11 in one vehicle Seven, eight and eleven-seat vehicles, quoted with the luggage you actually have. A group of nine is one booking and one fare, not three cars meeting at the terminal.
  • Child seats fitted before we arrive NSW law requires an approved restraint for every child under seven. Choose rear-facing, forward-facing or booster at booking and it is installed before your pickup.
  • Confirmed by a person, paid by link No payment is taken on this website. We call you back to confirm the vehicle and the fare, then send a secure payment link, and your trip is booked once it's paid. To change or cancel, reply to our call or email bookings@wsitransfers.com.au.
  • Early and late trips, both airports Pre-dawn departures and late-night arrivals can be requested; trips from 10pm to 5.59am carry a 20% late-night surcharge, shown in your fare. Sydney Airport has an 11pm to 6am curfew, and Western Sydney International has none.

Booked hire vehicles with drivers, not taxis. What NSW requires of a booking service, its drivers and its vehicles is set out on our safety and compliance page.
