KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from New York to Sydney

  • Looking for a cheap flight? 25% of our users found flights on this route for $933 or less one-way and $1,976 or less round-trip.
  • You have three airports to choose from for your travel to Sydney—either the John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), the LaGuardia Airport (LGA), or the Newark International Airport (EWR). Most flight deals operate out of the first two.
  • JFK is the largest of the airports and has a wider range of flight options. Furthermore, if you plan to travel by public transportation to the airport, it is better connected to the city center by subway lines A, E, and the AirTrain. Because it has the greatest variety of international flights, it is also one of the most crowded airports.
  • If you are trying to avoid crowds, do not plan to get to the airport during peak times. Traffic builds up on the city’s bridges and tunnels during rush hour, so be sure to leave plenty of time to get to the airport. Newark Airport can be reached by public transportation, although it requires various transfers. If you would prefer to get there via taxi, then EWR might be an even better option for you.
  • Sydney offers a wide range of services to get your trip off to the right start. There is free Wi-Fi across all terminals, a medical center (level 3 of Terminal 1), prayer rooms (level 3 of Terminal 1), a wide variety of airline lounges in all three airport terminals, currency exchange offices in all three airport terminals, and showers (near gates 31, 51 and 24).
  • Upon arrival to Sydney, you will be required to pass through the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service where you will need to show your passport, visa, and an incoming passenger card, which you should receive during your flight. Bear in mind that it is not permitted to record or photograph in these areas, and this is strictly enforced at the Sydney Airport.
  • Please also be sure to check the list of prohibited items before traveling. Certain foods, plant materials, and animal products are all prohibited and hefty fines will be enforced if these items are detected in your luggage upon passing through customs. Play it safe and be sure to declare anything you bring.
  • Shower facilities are plenty at JFK Airport in the following lounges: Wingtips Lounge in T4, American Airlines Admiral Club in T2, and Delta Club Lounge in T2 and T4. Facials, pedicures, manicures, and massages are also available at BeRelax and XpresSpa in T5 and T1, near Gates 3 and 6.
  • There are no direct, non-stop flights from Newark Airport (EWR) to Sydney Kingsford Airport (SYD). However, multiple airlines, including United Airlines, operate at least a one-stop flight from Newark Airport and New York John F Kennedy Airport (JFK) to SYD Airport.
  • Several lounges, including the Plaza Premium Lounge near Gate 24 and the Air New Zealand Lounge in Terminal 1, towards Gate 63, are available at Sydney Airport. All these lounges are open to all passengers, including arriving passengers, through lounge membership programs, a lounge pass, or by paying at the door. Lounge pass rates are around A$ 40. Services available at these lounges include shower facilities, free Wi-Fi access, flight monitoring information, TVs, rest areas, and food and beverages.
  • Newark Airport has a designated relief area, where you can take a pet for a potty break ahead of a flight. The Pet Relief Area is located just outside Terminal A, on the west side of the terminal. In Terminal B, the Pet Relief Area is on the south side of the terminal near Gate 57 B3 and Gate 65.
  • To catch up with an early morning flight from New York to Sydney at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), consider spending your night in the onsite TWA hotel. At Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), you may consider hotels near the airport. Among these hotels is Hilton Newark Airport.
  • One of the most cost-effective ways of spending your long layover as travelers whose flights have been delayed or have just arrived early for their flights from JFK to Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD) is to visit the freely accessible observation decks. JFK's observation decks include Terminal 5's TWA hotel, which offers full views of the airport runways, and the departure level in Terminal 4.
  • After landing at SYD, you will afford to walk luggage-free thanks to the onsite free baggage trolleys, surcharged Luggage Wrapping services at Secure Travel, Terminal 1's Landside, next to Check-in D and H, and the Luggage Storage & Lockers at SmarteCarte in Terminal 1's arrivals level, opposite to Blooming Trails Florist.

After a 5 hour delay waiting at the gate (3 delays adding up) with no clear reason provided, we finally boarded flew 3/4 of the way to Toronto then were turned back to New York. As we neared New York, the pilot declared that it was his fault, something to do with timing and him not being allowed into the country???? How could the airline let his happen? They had hours to prepare and make sure they had a crew available for the flight! We ended up in Toronto a day late with no sleep.

Terrible and im avoiding them in the future. My initial flight was delayed causing me to rebook my flight and when speaking with the representative to rebook I explained this is the second time my flights were delayed and they did nothing to help me. I wasn't booked to comfort plus or given a voucher or anything. I was almost late for my meeting that I needed to attend on Monday because of the games delta played delaying my flights even more and putting me in the very back of the plane next to an extremely intoxicated passenger

Bathrooms dirty sinks clogged. No one seemed to clean them. Plane very old

Although the flight left late, we arrived early. It was one of the quickest boarding and off boarding experiences I’ve had. It was kind of annoying the only drinks they had were water, coffee, and tea. The flight was very smooth, temperature was just right, and flight attendants were friendly.

Seats were really tight and the seat belts did not give enough slack.

The dear was very limited in space. I could put my water bottle in seat basket. Also, there was no inflight entertainment in the delta app?

We were forced to wait nearly 50 additional minutes before leaving the terminal.

Customer service at the gate in the flight was exceptional. On time. Aircraft and seat was decent. Thanks Delta. 💗

The WiFi has been awful on my last few Delta Air Lines flights.

Only one side of the heafphone jack work. Crew was friendly and helpful.

I liked the service, the menu, and the comfort of the seats! Even tho we were seated by the bathrooms, the reclining seats and movie selection was very good, my husband and I didn’t mind at all

Very good as always, stand out airline. The passengers whom choose to stuff baggage that otherwise should be checked-in is a real bother but that's not the airlines doing. A real frustration that passengers just don't want to check-in luggage. This is a pet hate unfortunately.

It’s a two prop flight so I had problems with my ears on re- entering ! But otherwise fine

I love flying with Qantas. There was no onscreen entertaining on this flight, and only a snack provided (not a meal) but still better than Jetstar or Virgin (in my opinion) so still happy.

The food was terrible. And the flight attendants were very rude. One flight attendant wouldn’t help a passenger lift their carry-on. Another flight attendant wouldn’t give a man an extra blanket. And they walked by not even looking at the passengers to see if they needed a glass of water.

Wheelchair assistance to move through the terminals and to/from the plane door was excellent. No vegan snack on the flight, only something with salami and cheese in it.

I have flown Qantas multiple times in the past it seemed this flight the plane had less seat room or the seats were way less comfortable than before. Everything else was about the same. Thanks

The old Plane had not been cleaned properly in a long time.

I got upgraded from economy to business, and the experience was outstanding

Boarding was over 3 hrs late and we didn’t land until almost 1:30am

Generally good. The aisles have gotten narrower which can slow down boarding. Flight crew was great! Healthier complimentary snacks would be appreciated. Due to earthquake in San Francisco we had to circle in air space for a bit but then had a smooth landing. I laud the flight crew for their patience ;)

Excellent, professional, actually on time which is rare for late flights. Decent food. I love the new neck pillows! Nice, simple upgrade from the old ones I wasn't sure where to put. I wish they would allow more time for rest. It's a red eye 7 hour flight and meal service was about 3 hours.

The tv monitor in front of my seat was not responding. The flight crew reset it and it still didn’t work.

Maybe add a seat trade app for flyers that didn’t get seats together

There's just no way to sit fully upright and comfortably in these seats. There needs to be 2 more inches of room, and that's not something that only one person on the flight needs - the whole flight needs 2 more inches of room. If that means you sell 6 less seats, so be it. It's too close for anyone. Forcing people to pay for "premium" economy just to get "barely enough space to breathe" isn't really an answer to that.

Boarding is very confusing. They have Line 1 and Line 2 and many many Boarding groups. Everyone lines up under those two lines long before they call zones. If you have a higher zone 2 like I did due to a Premium Plus ticket, it’s very awkward having to ask each person which zone they have. Extremely chaotic process. On board the flight attendants had no charisma whatsoever, even to us paying extra for an upgraded cabin. I asked for a chamomile tea after dinner (as no coffee or tea was even offered) and the FÃ said they didn’t have even though listed on the drink menu. Also, the mid flight service was entirely skipped which was a soup and sandwich combo. Supposedly had a variety of snacks mid flight too but those never materialized either. A few times I walked Back there, not a single flight attendant acknowledged me as they were all deep into their iPhones. I simply Wanted a glass of water since ZERO water runs were made on this 9hr 30 min flight.

Smooth flight. As always dinner could have been more generous. Breakfast was great.

Flight was delayed from 35 minute delayed aircraft arrival to 90 minute delay causing us to miss international connecting flight on SWISS resulting in 16 hour delay to reach detonation causing significant angst, monetary loss and discomfort. SWISS transfer desk and staff was like robots not willing to help at all.

Why is it that United flights from Newark are constantly delayed? Newark is a United hub!!!!!

horrible website for checking in- no option just to write the passport number; ludicrous

Worst seats I’ve ever had !!! The seats were very narrow and uncomfortable and misaligned with the seats in front of mine leading to bottom of the seat in front of mine pressing on my legs for 15.5 hours !

Delays on all NY flights. There was no communication on why but they didn’t say it was weather. Other carriers were not delayed.

Extraordinary service in business class, and very good breakfast and snacks. A really lovely flight.

They cancelled our flight without warning OR a refund. Never doing business with American Airlines again! This is the second AA booked trip in a row that we've had challenges with.

I got bumped due to weight restrictions even tho there were empty seats on my flight. I got put on an other flight with a stopover. My flight that originally was going to take 5-6 hours ever up being 14+ hours and my luggage arrived to my destination without me because I was made to check in my luggage on my original flight when I was deemed ok to board only to be asked to deplane. Worst flight experience.

Flight cancelled. Added a day and a half to my travel. American Airlines DID put me in a hotel for two nights, but have not given any money back for any of this! I spent money on an apartment at my destination that I basically wasted because I could not arrive.

I was pleasantly surprised with an upgrade at boarding. I finally had a mostly gluten free food options and a very attentive attendant.

Staff at the gate were incredibly rude, hostile and threatening. Never fly American Airlines.

AA had a nationwide tech glitch today and after two connections snd hours of delay, I arrived 7 hours late to my destination

The plane was very warm and the crew turned on the lights for the entire snack service.

Air Canada was great! From the airport at Montreal to boarding to the food on board the plane. The crew was great too! There was a slight issue with some other peoples’ tickets that I overheard about but the crew handled with care immediately to ensure everyone was comfortable and we could takeoff! Great experience with Air Canada

Terrible. My brother broke his leg and couldn’t board the flight and air Canada couldn’t do anything about rescheduling his flight. Poor customer service and help all around

Everything was good till we got to yyz...then we got to the gate and there was NO GATE AGENT. We waited 15 min before disembarking. No internet No IFE Old aircraft Second leg in two weeks NOT IMPRESSED

The seats are soooooooo small in economy. I was offered no tea or coffee in the am. When I asked was told that it was too late. The plane was 2 hours late leaving.

My first flight left so late we knew I would miss my connection. Rather than redirecting me then, they made me take a flight to Montreal, then Toronto (there was a flight leaving for Toronto when I was in NYC, no need for me to also go to montreal). Then they gave me a food voucher that did not work (4 places would not accept it). At least they gave me a hotel automatically, even though it was a cheap crappy one. I'm still not home, and it's been over 24 hours. I'm exhausted.

The Air Canada staff at the gate in Newark were fantastic and so very helpful!!!

Flight was delayed 1.5 hours as crew was stuck in traffic...that is absurd that the airline would be transfering a crew by car through NYC during rush hour. I missed my shuttle bus and got stuck in Vancouver for the night. Airline did not offer a voucher

Republic was fine but Air Canada was terrible in the airport. They issues me a boarding pass that I placed in my wallet and then when I showed up at the airport they had taken the bar code away from the ticket because they changed the flight number even though the flight stayed the same time. This caused me to be unable to go through security and I had to go to Air Canada for help and they were horrible and almost caused me to miss my flight. Luckily I managed to get it figured out on my own phone, not the kiosks, or the agent I asked for help or the long line I was standing in!!

Putting carryone size suitcase into the overhead luggage storage on a the small CR900 plane was cumbersome and its assignment to a far far gate w/o the moveable ramps at YYZ arrivals really stunk.

Newark to Montreal was really good. The return flight was not so good with a substitute carrier was not as good. I was impressed by the AC staff all along the way. Their in flight stack was superior.
