Sydney Airport announces two new developments

Dear Member,

Sydney Airport announces two new developments

The introduction of multi currency ATMs at T1 and the relocation of the T2 passenger pick-up area

Multi Currency ATMS

Travelex is proud to be the first to market in Australia with multi-currency ATMs. Over the next two months, Travelex is introducing over 30 new machines at selected locations throughout Sydney International Airport.

The new machines have been designed to improve the suite of foreign currency services Travelex offers at Sydney Airport, as well as to provide customers with a fast self –serve option for access to selected major currencies. The new ATMs dispense foreign or local banknotes in up to four currencies (per machine) and are strategically placed to make our customer’s purchase of foreign currency even more convenient.

Eight currencies are available to withdraw from the multi-currency ATMs; US Dollars, British Pounds, Euros, Australian, New Zealand or Singaporean Dollars, Thai Baht or Malaysian Ringgit. Simply choose your currency, either pay with your credit or debit card, and you’re on your way. It’s fast, convenient and open 24 hours a day.

Travelex has just made accessing your foreign currency even easier. Click on this link for further information on this and other great offers from Travelex.

New T2 Passenger Pick-up Area

Sydney Airport’s T2 passenger pick-up area has been relocated to provide more spaces, more free pick-up time and less congestion.

The change will benefit passengers using T2 – the Domestic Terminal used by Virgin Blue, Jetstar, Tiger Airways, Qantaslink, Regional Express (REX) and other regional carriers. There is no change to drop off arrangements at T2 and no changes to arrangements at T1 (International Terminal) or T3 (Qantas Domestic) – although T3 passengers may elect to use the new facility.

The new T2 passenger pick-up area is located across to the right-hand side of Keith Smith Avenue. It will provide space for 51 vehicles with a free 10 minute pick-up period. Drivers will be able to leave their vehicles unattended.

The old T2 passenger pick-up area was located at the front of the terminal. It provided space for just 7 vehicles, operated with a 2 minute pick-up period, and vehicles could not be left unattended.

T2 Pick-ups	Old Pick-up Area	New Pick-up Area
Vehicle Spaces	7 spaces	51 spaces
Free Time	2 minutes	10 minutes
Vehicles	Must not be left unattended	Can be left unattended

The new pick-up area will reduce congestion and improve the traffic flow within the Domestic Precinct. Traffic picking-up from T2 will get in and out quickly as it will not have to do the full loop and not have to pass T3. As well as benefiting T2 traffic, this will mean that T3 traffic will be able to get to their terminal faster as well.

Increasing the free pick-up period from 2 minutes to 10 minutes will also reduce the number of cars looping around the road network as they wait for passengers to exit from T2 – further reducing congestion.
