Cheap flights from Sydney to Adelaide from $121

Travelling by air to Adelaide from Sydney will see you departing from Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD), which lies 8 km from the centre of the city. It’s about a 15min drive from the CBD to the suburb of Mascot, where you’ll find the airport. If you’d prefer to catch a bus, it’s on the N20 route. As Australia’s main international airport, it’s large and busy and offers all of the modern amenities for air travellers. You’ll land at Adelaide International Airport (ADL), the main airport serving that part of South Australia. It’s also pretty close to the city centre at 7 km away, and it takes around 15min to drive there. Otherwise, you can catch an Airport City Shuttle, which will take about 5min longer. You’ll just have to pre-book this a minimum of 24h before your flight is scheduled.

The vast majority of flights to Adelaide from Sydney are direct between the two cities. Qantas flies several times a day, as does Virgin Australia. Jetstar is the other main carrier, offering flights at slightly lower prices. The trade-off, of course, is that these flights take a little longer, but as it’s a relatively short flight in the first place, it will only add about 10-15min to the roughly 2h trip. You’ll also be able to fly from Sydney to Adelaide using Rex Airlines, which is based at Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport.

You also have the option of booking a one-stop flight from Sydney to Adelaide, these are also available throughout the day.

The first leaves Sydney Kingsford Smith and lands at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport, before carrying on to land at Adelaide Airport. The other route will see you landing at Melbourne’s Avalon Airport en route. Layover times can vary widely, regardless of the airline, so choose your flight carefully when booking through Cheapflights. Some layovers take only 30min, while others can last up to almost 4h.

You don’t need either a passport or visa to fly domestically inside Australia, but be aware of other restrictions on items that you may or may not carry onboard with you.
