What is the nearest airport (or any airline) that flies to Warialda, NSW? I need to get there for an art project display in September and I can't find an airport or any airline that goes there. It's a regional place so I expect small aircraft to operate the route (if there are any airlines that go there). It might help to tell you that I am flying from Sydney

Possibly Tamworth, and a two hour drive.

Fly to Armidale and rent a car.

Closest airport with scheduled flights is Moree Airport, around 80.9 km, 1 hour 1 min drive from Warialda, NSW through Gwydir Hwy/National Route 38. QantasLink operates flights to Moree from Sydney 6 days a week, so no flight on Saturday.

Thanks geoli1997, I looked up the other two destinations suggested and you had the answer spot on. Just checked out the Qantas website and the airfares are so expensive. Guess I have to live with it.

You could take the plunge and use a CountryLink service - they run coaches to Warialda from Tamworth six days a week. I made a dummy booking to test it out - it's $87.21 in Economy and $106.80 in First. However, there's trackwork past Muswellbrook, so it'll be a train from Sydney to Muswellbrook, then a coach to Tamworth, then another coach to Warialda.
