to the city, it is not far but is it is a bit cheaper than a taxi
if you're by yourself and they drop off at accommodation. Note
that Cairns is a very spread out city and some accommodation places
are that far off the beaten track that it will not be serviced
by buses. Flights to Cairns:If you are already in Australia then go to our page Cheap Domestic Flights in Australia for a good choice in cheap domestic airfares to Cairns.
