Brisbane Airport and Hotel Transfer Guide

Landing at Brisbane Airport (BNE) after a long-haul flight is usually straightforward, but getting from the terminal to your hotel requires a bit of planning. I have touched down here more times than I can count, navigating the baggage carousels and customs lines so you do not have to. Whether you are heading straight into the Central Business District or transferring directly to a cruise terminal, knowing your options ahead of time saves you from terminal-exit stress. Getting From the Airport to Brisbane City Center # When you step out of the arrivals hall at Brisbane Airport, your main objective is getting to your hotel as efficiently as possible. The distance from the airport to the city center is roughly 12 to 14 kilometers, typically taking about 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions along the Gateway Motorway and major arterial roads.
