Route Overview & Timing
Ocean Shores sits in Northern NSW, just south of the QLD border. Because you’re travelling into Queensland, remember the daylight savings difference: NSW observes Daylight Saving Time, but QLD doesn’t. Consequently, between early October and early April, Brisbane time is one hour behind NSW. We factor this into your pickup window; however, please still double-check your departure time is set to Brisbane’s local time when booking.
We usually travel via the M1 / Pacific Motorway and connect to the Gateway Motorway for Brisbane Airport and the Cruise Terminal. During peak holiday periods or when roadworks occur, we may choose an alternate route to maintain reliability.
Typical Travel Times
As a guide, Ocean Shores → Brisbane Airport typically takes 1 hr 50 min – 2 hr 15 min depending on traffic, peak periods, and any roadworks. We confirm a pickup window that allows time for bag-drop and security without long waits at the terminal.
For international flights, we recommend planning for the earlier end of the window, particularly during school holidays. For domestic departures, we still build in a comfortable buffer so you arrive calm and on schedule.
Vehicle Guide: Which One Suits Your Trip?
Travelling light? The Tesla Model 3 suits up to four passengers with two suitcases. Prefer extra cabin space or carrying a stroller? Choose the Tesla Model Y. Families and small groups often opt for the Kia Carnival (up to 7) for prams and surfboards. Larger groups—or travellers with bulky luggage—should select a Maxi/HiAce (up to 11). Share luggage details at booking so we can assign the right vehicle first time.
Moreover, if you’re bringing child seats, surfboards, golf bags, or a folding wheelchair, tell us early. We’ll allocate a vehicle with the correct space and anchor points.
Family Travel & Child Seats
For families, pre-booking child seats makes travel safer and simpler. Under Australian road rules, children under seven must use an approved child restraint. Because sizes vary, please include ages and seat types (e.g., capsule, convertible, booster) so we bring the right equipment. We can also allow time for quick nappy stops or stroller folding, which is especially helpful on early-morning flights.
Luggage & Sports Gear
Standard luggage is included. Nevertheless, oversized items—like surfboards, guitars, camping gear or extra suitcases—may require a larger vehicle. Therefore, list all items upfront and we’ll match the right van or people mover so nothing feels cramped.
Accessibility & Special Assistance
If anyone in your group needs extra time, closer set-down, or Meet & Greet to help through the terminal, just say so. We regularly assist with mobility aids, sensory needs, and non-verbal communication preferences. We’ll plan the journey so it feels calm, predictable, and respectful.
Airport Meeting Points
At Brisbane Airport (BNE), Domestic and International terminals have clearly signposted pickup zones. We track your flight and adjust if it’s early or delayed. Meet & Greet inside the terminal is available on request when you want extra assistance with luggage or kids.
