Q: How do I get to the Islands from Brisbane Airport? A: You can catch the train from the airport to the city where you can connect with a bus that will take you directly to the Weinam Creek Ferry Terminal at Redland Bay. Alternatively, you can catch the train from the airport to the city and get a connecting train to Cleveland, where you can connect with a bus or take a taxi to Weinam Creek Ferry Terminal. Public transport will take approximately 1-1.5 hours. The easiest way to get to the islands from the Airport is to hire a car and drive to Redland Bay where you can park and take the ferry.
Luxury Chauffered Vehicles offer a personal chauffer driven service that picks up from the Airport and drops you off at Weinam Creek for an all up cost of $88 for 4 people, $11 for each extra person after that (including tolls). You can book this service by contacting Stan Lewis on mobile 0412 028 098.
