Airport Transfers

Once you have booked your flights, it’s a good idea to plan ahead and look at airport transfers to get you to your accommodation when you arrive in Australia. There are plenty of options for you to choose from, whether you are arriving in Brisbane or the Gold Coast:

Brisbane

If you are arriving into Brisbane, your options include public transport (trains or buses), Uber, taxi or shuttle bus; you can find out more about these options here.

Note: Student One Accommodation can arrange airport transfers for under-18 students who are residing at Student One. Find out more here.

Gold Coast

If you are arriving into the Gold Coast, your options include public transport (buses), Uber, taxi or airport connections via Con-X-ion, you can find out more about these options here.

Connect with your future classmates

We know it can be tough moving overseas! Make the transition as smooth as possible, by getting in touch with your classmates through our international student community.

Before you set foot in Australia or on campus, it’s easy to connect with other Griffith College students and share conversations about what’s ahead. It will make you feel far more confident to know there are plenty of people in the same position as you!
