Darwin's airport services both international and domestic routes. Lots of flights run between Darwin and Indonesia, as well as to other spots in Southeast Asia. You can also fly to Darwin from all other states in Australia, although you might end up going via Alice Springs, Brisbane or Adelaide.

You can reach Darwin by bus on three routes - the Western Australian route from Broome, Derby, Port Hedland and Kununurra; the Queensland route through Mt Isa to Threeways and up the Track; or straight up the Track from Alice Springs.

The weekly Darwin-to-Adelaide (via Alice Springs and Katherine) train service leaves town on Wednesday mornings.
