No, you cant get a train but you can get a bus. Check out www.transperth.com.au for more details

Hi not sure of the cost but there are minibuses that run frequently to and from the city, to various hotels, try them, they are called something like Airporter!! Do a general search on google for perth airport it may come up there. Sorry not much more help than that!!

Domestic or International terminal, they are on opposite sides of the paddock.

I know that TransPerth (or whatever its called) has a 1/2 hourly service to the Domestic terminal from the city bus terminus. Check the website from a earlier post.

I cant remember if the International terminal has a bus service, although from memory various backpacker buses run out there and the cost last year was about $15.00 a head to get back to the city.

Perthforme is an unknown quantity at this point

Jump in a taxi cost about the same as the shuttle bus and will be quicker just what you need after a long flight .

Just wondering - what made you choose Perth? We are going on a reccy early next year (also validate Visa - we hope!) and are looking at Perth and Brisbane. Did you look anywhere else, or did you know you wanted to go to Perth?
