Sydney Kingsford Smith is Australia’s busiest airport, with separate ranks at T1 (International) and T2/T3 (Domestic). Standard NSW rank-and-hail rules apply between North Sydney and Sydney Airport: the driver must run the meter unless a regulated fixed fare is explicitly in effect (so the A$54.05 midpoint above is a maximum, not a quote). Transport for NSW (Point to Point Transport Commission) sets the metered ceiling reflected here — about A$54.05 on the day rate for the trip into Sydney Airport.
