Airport Transportation in Perth

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Perth Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Airport transportation in Perth takes you from any of the four terminals at PER to hotels in the CBD and Northbridge, beachside stays in Scarborough and Cottesloe, the port city of Fremantle, the wineries of the Swan Valley and longer trips south to Margaret River.

Perth Airport Transfers

Book your Perth airport transfer before you fly and your driver meets you in the arrivals hall of the terminal where your flight lands, whether that is the T1/T2 precinct or the Qantas precinct at T3/T4. Add your flight number and terminal so the driver waits at the right side of the airfield, and the flight is tracked if it lands early or late.

Choose a sedan for couples, an SUV or van for families and groups, and ride door to door to your hotel, apartment, family home or holiday rental in Perth, Fremantle or the Swan Valley.

Perth Airport Shuttle

Our Perth airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, leaving as soon as you are through arrivals instead of waiting to fill seats. It has room for suitcases, golf bags and surfboards, which suits families, groups heading to Fremantle or the coast, and travelers continuing to Margaret River.

Landing at Perth Airport

Perth Airport (PER) is the main gateway to Western Australia, east of the Perth city center. It has four terminals in two precincts on opposite sides of the airfield: T1 and T2 together, and T3 and T4 together in the Qantas precinct. Most international flights and Virgin Australia use T1, Jetstar domestic and regional flights use T2, Qantas international flights use T3 and Qantas domestic flights use T4.

On an international arrival you clear immigration first, using SmartGates if your passport is eligible, then collect your bags and pass biosecurity and customs before entering the arrivals hall. Domestic passengers go straight to baggage claim.

Perth keeps Australian Western Standard Time (UTC+8) all year with no daylight saving.

Entry requirements and local notes

  • Visa, ETA or eVisitor before you fly: Most visitors need a visa, an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA) or an eVisitor arranged before departure, and hand in an Incoming Passenger Card on arrival unless their flight offers the digital Australia Travel Declaration.
  • Strict biosecurity: Declare all food, plant and animal products on your arrival card; undeclared items can lead to fines.
  • Two precincts: T1/T2 and T3/T4 are separate sides of the airport with no airside link, so check your terminal, especially on Qantas codeshares, and give it when you book.
  • No daylight saving: Perth stays on UTC+8 all year, so the time difference with Sydney and Melbourne changes with the season.

Perth Airport Transportation FAQs

Where will my driver meet me at Perth Airport?

Your driver meets you in the arrivals hall of the terminal where your flight lands, after baggage claim and customs. Give your flight number and terminal when you book so the driver waits at the right precinct, T1/T2 or T3/T4.

What if I land at T3/T4 instead of T1/T2?

Tell us your terminal when you book, or let us know as soon as it changes. The two precincts are on opposite sides of the airfield, so your driver needs to know which one to wait at.

Can you take me to Fremantle?

Yes. Book a private transfer from Perth Airport straight to your hotel, apartment or rental in Fremantle, or to the ferry terminal if you are continuing to Rottnest Island.

Can you take me to the Swan Valley?

Yes. A private transfer can take you from Perth Airport to wineries, guesthouses and holiday homes in the Swan Valley, east of the city.

Can you take me to Margaret River?

Enter your address in Margaret River, Dunsborough or Busselton in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.

Can you drop me at a holiday rental or family home?

Yes. Give the full street address, plus any gate code or building access details, and your driver takes you door to door to holiday rentals, apartments and family homes across Perth.

Can I bring surfboards or golf clubs?

Yes. Tell us about boards, golf bags or bikes when you book so we assign a vehicle with enough space for them.

Do you pick up from late-night and early-morning flights?

Yes. Many international flights land in Perth late at night or early in the morning; your driver is booked for your flight's arrival time, whatever the hour.

Can I book a ride back to Perth Airport?

Yes. Book a return transfer from your hotel or rental to Perth Airport and give your departure terminal, since the two precincts are on opposite sides of the airfield.
