Aren't going to use it ? Crock!
I travel roughly every three weeks BNE-SYD ... and used to allow one
hour to get from Roma St to the airport via the Skytrans bus or taxi.
Always end up late on the bus (sprint for gate 34!) or $50 poorer in
the taxi. The train will provide a constant, regular and reliable
connection.
