Taxi Manly to Sydney Airport — airport transfers 24/7
Manly airport transfers run down the Wakehurst Parkway and through the Harbour Tunnel, so an early flight from Manly to Sydney Airport is comfortably under an hour outside peak. We pre-book beach-house pickups on the Corso, Manly Wharf and the hotels along North Steyne, and a Manly taxi with a roof box or maxi cab handles surfboards, golf bags and prams.
The typical road distance from Manly to Sydney Airport is around 36 km. Priced on our published sedan rates — $5.00 flag fall + 36 km by road x $3.20 + 6 min in traffic x $0.80 + about $11.30 in motorway tolls (drop-off at the terminal — no airport pickup fee; actual tolls depend on the route taken) — that comes to roughly $139.26 once card processing is included. Our online booking form quotes the exact same way using the live route distance.
