Cheap flights from Sydney to Apia from $492

Your journey to Apia from Sydney will start at Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD) and end at Faleolo International Airport (APW) in Samoa, of which Apia is the capital city. Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport is the largest and busiest in Australia, and it’s located in the Mascot suburb, which is around 8km from Sydney’s CBD. It’s a 15min drive, or you can catch the N20 bus from the CBD to the airport. You’ll also need to organise transport once you’ve landed on the other end, as Faleolo International Airport is some 33 km to the west of the city of Apia itself; this is about a 50min drive. Alternatively, you can take an airport shuttle bus, which you can pre-book or simply arrange once you’ve cleared customs.

A direct flight to Apia from Sydney is definitely the one to choose if you are concerned about your total travel time for the trip. It’s only a 6h direct flight, in contrast to some of the indirect flights that can take over 50h to make the journey, with lengthy layovers at airports along the way; these are also the cheaper flights by some measure. They’re all operated by Samoa Airways and depart from Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport, flying straight to Faleolo International Airport.

There are also options for flight routes from Sydney to Apia that make one or two layovers on the way. These are usually much longer flights, so be aware of that beforehand. One such route is operated by Air New Zealand out of Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport. It flies from there to Auckland International Airport (AKL), where you’ll switch to Samoa Airways for the flight to Faleolo International Airport. The layover in Auckland is roughly 18h. One of the main two-stop routes will have you flying with Jetstar out of Sydney, landing at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport (MEL) and from there to Brisbane Airport (BNE), where you’ll change to Samoa Airways for the last leg. It’s important to take into account that each of these layovers is just over 20h long. Your other option is more of a round trip, taking a Qantas flight to Auckland and then back to Brisbane, before changing to Samoa Airways to fly to Faleolo International Airport.
