Operating 24/7, a taxi or private transfer is available no matter your arrival time, as long as you pre-book your journey in advance.

Editor’s Note

How to get from Perth Airport to Rockingham by bus and train

Rockingham can be reached by bus from Perth Airport and then by train. Although indirect and longer than the taxi, this option is very affordable. It’s worth considering if you’re travelling on a tight budget and your flight times align with those of the buses and trains.

The journey involves taking a bus from Perth Airport to the city centre, then a train towards Mandurah, stopping at Rockingham.

How much is the bus and train fare from Perth Airport to Rockingham?

The combined bus and train ticket costs €3.10 (AUD 5.10) for all passengers, regardless of age. The fare is reduced to €2.80 (AUD 4.59) for SmartRider cardholders. Children under 4 travel for free. You can purchase your ticket from ticket machines at the train stations.

The bus operates from 05:38 to 23:55 Monday to Friday, from 05:35 to 00:27 on Saturday, and from 06:43 to 23:55 on Sundays and bank holidays.

Where do I get the bus and train from?

The Airport Line departs from the Airport Central Train Station. It’s a 5-minute walk from the International Terminal, but if you arrive at the Domestic Terminal, it’s an 18-minute walk using the Skybridge walkway from the Airport.

To get on the bus, go to Stand 1 on Airport Drive. Get off at Wellington and walk to Perth Underground Station. The bus journey takes around 30 minutes.

From the Wellington stop, Perth Underground Station is 285 m away. Once in the station, head for Platform 2 and take the Mandurah Line to Rockingham. The train journey takes approximately 35 minutes.

Convenience

Because it’s not a direct route and there is a short walk required, this is not the most convenient option to get to Rockingham. The bus and train do run frequently during the week, however, which is a pro for this option. Of course, this combination is not very practical if you have a lot of luggage. Similarly, if you arrive at night or over the weekend when bus and train services are less frequent, this travel option may be less attractive because of the longer total journey time.

If you’d rather experience a seamless, door-to-door journey in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle, you can pre-book your airport taxi to Rockingham with Welcome Pickups.

Editor’s Note

If you have a lot of luggage, you can take a taxi to Perth Underground Station in the city centre instead of the bus. The fare is approximately €24 (AUD 40) for up to 4 passengers..

Useful Tips

If you plan to use Perth's public transport system several times, it may be worth purchasing a SmartRider card. This rechargeable card costs €6 (AUD 10) and gives a 10% discount on the cash fare.

Groups of up to 7 people can get a FamilyRider ticket for unlimited travel on the day of purchase. This ticket is valid if no more than 2 people from the group normally pay full fare.

Try to get to the bus stop at least 15 minutes before departure to purchase tickets and secure a seat.
