Travel tips
What to know before you go.
Mid-week departures (Tuesday to Thursday) are typically cheaper than Friday afternoon or Sunday services. Booking three to four days ahead is usually enough outside school holidays. Transwa is the WA government regional coach operator. Concession fares are available for seniors, students and pensioners; check eligibility before booking. Arrive at the terminal at least 15 minutes before departure. Most operators begin boarding 10 minutes prior to the scheduled time and won't hold the coach for late passengers. Check the operator's luggage policy before you travel. Most include one checked bag (20 kg) and one carry-on, but allowances vary by carrier and additional bags usually attract a fee.
