Taxi Hurstville: pre-booked, not hailed
Hurstville is the commercial centre of the St George area, and the taxi rank outside Westfield and the station gets busy. For an early flight you don't want to depend on whichever cab is there. With SkyMiles you choose the time, get a confirmed driver and a fixed price, and your bags are loaded for you. It's a straightforward pre-booked taxi alternative.
Hurstville to Sydney Airport route
Drivers usually take Forest Road through Bexley and Arncliffe and then the Princes Highway and General Holmes Drive to the terminals. Alternatively they'll use King Georges Road to the M5 East. Off-peak it takes about 20 minutes. On weekday mornings allow 35 to 45 minutes. Domestic T2/T3 is a few minutes closer than T1 International from this side.

Visitors and family travel
Hurstville has a large community with family overseas, and many of our bookings are relatives arriving at T1 with plenty of luggage. Your driver can meet them with a name sign through our Sydney Airport pick-up service. Car seats are available at A$10 per seat.
How early to leave Hurstville
The St George area is close to the airport, but Forest Road and King Georges Road slow down at peak times. As a guide:
- Domestic flights (T2/T3): a pickup about 1 hour 45 minutes before departure off-peak
- International flights (T1): about 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours before departure
