Your Flight Lands Late, but the Driver's Still There

You arrive at Brisbane Airport, check in at the Con-X-ion counter, and board a shared shuttle that takes you straight to your CBD hotel. The driver meets you at arrivals, handles the route, and drops you at your door — no taxis, no bus stops, no luggage drama. Shuttles depart every 40 minutes and cost less than a cab ride.

The Experience

The thing about landing at Brisbane Airport without a plan is that suddenly you're standing in arrivals with two bags, no local SIM, and a hotel address on your phone that might as well be written in code. Con-X-ion's shared shuttle solves that before you even leave the terminal. There's a check-in counter right there in both the International and Domestic sections, and the staff point you toward the coach bay. You hand over your flight details and hotel address, and that's it — no negotiating with taxi drivers, no hunting for the bus stop with luggage, no surge pricing at 11pm.

The shuttle runs every 40 minutes to Brisbane CBD hotels, including Kangaroo Point, so you're not waiting around for hours. The vehicle is air-conditioned, seats up to 21 passengers, and the driver knows the route cold. You get a meet-and-greet at arrivals — someone actually looking for you — and then a direct transfer straight to your hotel door. No intermediate stops, no detours. It's the kind of thing that sounds small until you're jet-lagged and just want to drop your bag and sleep.

One thing to know: you get one suitcase and one carry-on per person. If you're traveling with oversized gear — surfboards, golf clubs, bikes — you'll need to check with the operator before you book, because those have restrictions. And if your hotel happens to be at 18 Tank Street (Evolution Apartments), you'll actually pick up from The Mercure North Quay instead, so read your confirmation carefully. The service runs seven days a week and meets your flight, which means whether you land on a Tuesday morning or Friday night, there's a coach waiting.

What’s included

Your transfer includes hotel pickup and drop-off at your Brisbane CBD accommodation, a meet-and-greet service at the airport, an English-speaking driver, and air-conditioned transport in a 21-seater mini coach. The shuttle operates between Brisbane Airport and Brisbane CBD hotels (including Kangaroo Point), or between the airport and Gold Coast CBD and Broadbeach hotels, depending on which option you select at booking.
