Days somewhat matter given Sydney (+ Newcastle and Wollongong) counts Fri-Sun as weekend which means the whole day is off-peak, with lower daily caps as well.
 
Public transport to WSI (train to Merrylands then free 1/2 hourly feeder bus to airport) from my home will cost $5.50 peak and $3.85 off peak. But could take 2 hours depending how long I need to wait for the feeder bus...could fly Syd-Mel quicker!

An Uber could take 80 mins depending on traffic and cost $130-160!

Yes, maybe better timed to fly in from MEL for WSI connex to SIN ...
 
LST will now have Skybus.
Which is a good thing, seeing the walk from the airport, to Breadalbane, while doable, can be a pain.
Of course, still no Metrotas public bus that goes directly to the airport, or even a connection.
Not cheap at $8 one way.
Edit: heh, actually, half priced for now, so still $16 full one way, or a bit less with return.
