Business jets at Kingsford Smith

Can anyone tell me where abouts private / business jets park at YSSY and what roads lead there or how to get there from the main terminal?

The majority of business jets up to and including Global Express normally park on DOM5 apron. Normally DOM6 for BBJ and larger. Occasional overflow on DOM4. These aprons are all just to the north of the RW25 threshold.

There are two FBOs which handle private operations on these aprons, and both are within a couple of hundred metres of each other on Ross Smith Avenue. You could walk from the Domestic Terminals in around 15 mins, or get a taxi and ask for Hawker Pacific or Universal on Ross Smith Avenue. Many drivers won't recognise the address, some know it better as "near Krispy Kreme".

Hope this helps.

Think you might have the wrong forum, this one is about:

Airline and RPT issues in Australia, enZed and the Pacific

"The place for students, instructors and charter guys."

This IS the right spot mourgo. Falling Leaf, those "little" jets are generally charter machines - the RPT stuff are the big things with Boeing written on them.

Yeah, but if falling leaf wants to be the forum police then you've got to accept the consequences of what happens when those who's job it actually is to moderate the posts do their bit!

Anyway, back to the question at hand.

VI has it spot on, Dom5 is the place to aim for.
Additionally, both Hawkers and Universal will quite happily do a pick up or drop off service from any of the terminals (for a small fee). Or you can walk to the Domestic terminals quite easily in 10 or so minutes.
