The NYSF has organised transport between the arrival points of:

At all locations, whatever your time of arrival, students will be met by NYSF staff or volunteers.

For students arriving at Brisbane airport, team members will be located at various points to ensure all students are directed to our shuttle buses. Volunteers and NYSF staff will be clearly identified with signage and name badges indicating they are NYSF representatives.  

Students should collect any baggage before boarding buses. Buses will depart approximately every 90 minutes between 10am and 6pm.

For students arriving at the Brisbane Coach Terminal and Roma Street Station, students will be met as they arrive and transported by Uber or bus to the accommodation.

Students arriving outside of standard hours will be transported from arrival points by Uber with volunteers or NYSF staff.

On arrival at the accommodation, you will be directed to the check-in desk where you will receive your individual room key.

For students and parents who have made special arrangements to meet with an NYSF team member at the time of drop-off with your child, please go directly to the registration desk and make yourself known to our volunteers.
