Brisbane Airport to Surfers Paradise Private Transfer

Fly into Brisbane Airport (BNE) and go straight to Surfers Paradise. GC Airport Transfers runs private, door-to-door transfers from the domestic or international terminal to every hotel and apartment tower on the strip. You pay a fixed price per vehicle, not per person, with no surge pricing. Your driver tracks your flight and meets you at arrivals.

The run is about 85 km via the Gateway Motorway and the M1 south — roughly 75 minutes door to door outside peak times, longer on Friday afternoons. We collect from both BNE terminals and drop at Q1, Hilton, Crown Towers, Peppers Soul, Meriton, Mantra, Paradise Resort and any Surfers Paradise, Main Beach or Chevron Island address.

Private transfer or shuttle?

A shared airport shuttle from Brisbane Airport to the Gold Coast stops along the way and runs to a timetable, so it is slower and the pickup time is theirs, not yours. A private transfer leaves when you land, goes straight to your Surfers Paradise address and costs the same fixed amount for one passenger or three. For a family or a group the Carnival at $225 between up to seven people is usually cheaper per head than shuttle seats.
