Enough time between flights
Hello,
I have a United flight from LAX landing ay SYD at 610am. I then have a Qantas flight going to Darwin at 9:35am. Do you think that's enough time to clear customes, get luggage, transfer terminals, and check in?
Thanks,
Aaron

Hi Aaron
Heaps of time.. My average time from aircraft door to the outside world is 40 minutes in Sydney. My longest was 1 hour due to problems unloading the baggage from the aircraft.
The domestic terminal is on the other side of the airport but there are buses to get you there. Once you're on the bus it should only take 10 minutes.
