Account for around A$9.50 in tolls if the driver takes the standard route into North Sydney. The toll-free option is slower but cheaper.
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 Sydney Airport and North Sydney: 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). The figures here mirror the regulated maximum from Transport for NSW (Point to Point Transport Commission) — drivers may charge less than the A$54.05 typical between Sydney Airport and North Sydney, never more.
