One thing to bear in mind with KST is that they do not operate to a
timetable. They will sit there and wait until the bus is full, this
can be anywhere up to about 20-30 minutes if it is quiet. You will
also go all over the place dropping everyone else off, if yours will
be the last drop, so you could waste a heap of time.

I would be going the cab with luggage and train without.

Same here Dave. Murphy's Law always seems to apply with shuttles, your
hotel is always the last for drop-off and first for pick-up. You spend
about 15 minutes in stop go peak hour traffic and travel 5 kilometres to
find yourself at the hotel across the street from yours. You stuff around
whilst waiting for other passengers. You cram in poky seats in a minibus
with obnoxious, inane sweaty fellow passengers and endure an hour of
un-necessary torture at the end of a long flight. No way! Especially when
you have a fellow passenger to share a taxi.

You still have to cab it from central to the Rocks if you use the
train..............

Not quite true - the airport to city train goes direct to Circular Quay
which is a walkable distance to The Rocks - BUT not with luggage!
