Gold Coast Airport TransfersThe majority of visitors to the Gold Coast will require an airport transfer (aka shuttle) to and from the Brisbane airport terminals or the Gold Coast airport, and their Gold Coast lodgings. The transfers involve both time and expense that has to be considered in any holiday planning. Gold Coast accommodation tariffs do not include the costs involved in airport transfers, nor do the reservations staff make transfer bookings on behalf of their guests.
