I am concerned that 4 days before opening, and Uber has unable to select WSI as destination.

How can I get to WSI and earn Qantas Points on Uber then?

Genuine question, but I still thought they blocked off access to WSI via the roads?

Depends how you search. SYD has an advantage in being the first three letters of the airport name as well as the location code.

Is there any way I can find out what cargo flights are landing at night currently? According to the data I shouldnt be hearing anything but I swear there are 3 planes I notice about 9-9.30pm flying over that Ive not noticed until recently and Im 45klms away from the airport (25klms straight line)

From the QR press release
Qatar Airways flights to Western Sydney International Airport (WSI)
Starting 15 December 2027, flights from Doha will operate every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday:
Doha (DOH) to Western Sydney (WSI) – Flight QR906: Departure 01:40; Arrival 23:45
Flights from Western Sydney will operate every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday:
Western Sydney (WSI) to Doha (DOH) – Flight QR907: Departure 16:10; Arrival 23:00

so QR is happy to have their planes parked at WSI for 16ish hours? wow, or are they playing tag with them somewhere else??

I feel for some reason Melbourne is not as busy as Sydney which means Avalon is still yet to achieve their level of attractiveness.

Yet so many Melbourne residents feel that QF leaves them out..

So potentially they may have prioritise SYD in the city?

QF has abandoned Melbourne for some reason, even it has a higher population than Sydney. Perhaps income profile matters?

No they have not. You literally can drive to the door of WSI, wherever the doors are open at the terminal building is another question.
