Changes and service warnings
Check the effective date and the current operator notice before following a saved route.
South Terminal shuttle pickup level
Current airport guidance places both international and domestic South Terminal shuttle pickups on Level 3. Don't blend this with older Level 2 or Bus Bay 3 information.
What remains to confirm
Before you use one of these routes, check the operating carrier, flight date and current stop with the airport or transport provider. These records can’t tell you whether your bag is checked through, whether you may enter the country, how long the queues are or whether you have enough time to connect.
