Transport terminal transfers

ABSTUDY Fares Allowance can cover the cost of travel from where your plane, bus or train stops to your accommodation. We can pay for public transport.

We can also pay for transport arranged by your education institution, boarding or accommodation provider where they either:

  • charge all students
  • charge a reasonable amount if charging ABSTUDY students only.

We can also pay for taxis if any of the following apply:

  • public transport isn’t available
  • it’s not safe for you to take public transport because of the time of day or your age
  • it’s the first time you’re travelling to your place of study.

We don’t book taxis for you. If you pay for one, keep your receipt. You can apply for reimbursement from us after you travel.
