Need to be there by 9? Plan the Sydney trip ahead

KRAIL plans a Sydney train, bus or ferry trip for later, either leaving at a set time or arriving by one, for today or any day up to a week ahead.

Job interview in Barangaroo at 9am? Sit down the night before, tell KRAIL you need to arrive by nine, and it lists the trips that get you there with time to spare.

Tap Plan your trip

Search your trip, then tap Plan your trip (once you have set a time, that button shows your choice instead). A sheet opens with two choices at the top:

  • Leave, when you know what time you are heading out
  • Arrive, when you know what time you have to be there
The plan your trip sheet showing a Leave and Arrive switch, a date stepper and a clock face for the time
Leave at, or arrive by. Pick the one the day actually needs.

Pick the day and the time

Use the arrows to move from Today to Tomorrow and on through the week. Then set the time on the clock. The button at the bottom reads it back to you in plain words, like Arrive Tomorrow 9:00 AM, so you know exactly what you are about to search. Tap it and your times update.

The sheet with Arrive chosen, the date stepped to Tomorrow and the time set, the button now reading Arrive Tomorrow
Step the date, set the time, and the button tells you what you asked for.

Changed your mind? Tap Reset and you are back to leaving now.

Great for

  • getting to work, an exam or an appointment on time
  • checking the last good option home before a night out
  • planning a weekend trip on a Thursday night

Good to know

  • You can plan up to 7 days ahead.
  • Times for later are the planned timetable, so check again on the day for anything running late.
