Staying online in Sydney

Sydney is ferries and headlands. The opera house is not the hard navigation; the beach that is three coves over is.

Before you land

Kingsford Smith has a train. Install before you need it, then tap on with a card. The airport station is clearly signed and still a long walk.

Getting around

Opal covers train, bus, and ferry. Ferries are the scenic transit and the one you will mistime without a live departure. Rides are for the late trip home.

Where the data actually goes

The harbour walk is real. Bondi and the coast are a bus. A Blue Mountains day is a train from Central. Hotel wifi covers the evening; the plan covers the day outside.

Which plan to buy

The 10GB week is enough for the city. If the trip is the east coast, buy the larger 15 or 20GB plan so you are not rationing maps in another city.

Practical notes

Plugs are type I. Sun and walking will rearrange your photos more than your itinerary. Cards are assumed.
