What's the cheapest way to get from Gold coast Airport to Brisbane Airport?
Train, Bus.... ride share???
When not having a car.
 
Using a Go card, it cost me around $11 (off peak) on public transport from OOL to Brisbane city on Monday (ANZAC Day holiday):
Bus 760 from OOL to Varsity Lakes station
Train from Varsity Lakes station to Brisbane city

If continuing on the same Airtrain direct to BNE airport, it will be over $30 (due to the airport surcharge). For the same $11 off peak fare using the same Go card, try this instead:
Change at Eagle Junction to a Shorncliffe/Northgate train to Toombul
Bus 590 from Toombul to Skygate (DFO)
Free shuttle bus from Skygate (DFO) to BNE international and domestic terminal

Cost me about $160 in a Uber from BNE to the footy at the Gold Coast but I’d think there would be much cheaper options. The shuttle bus might be around $80-90???

It was $11 one-way during off peak hours and took me around 2 hours from OOL to Brisbane city. You'll need to add another hour onwards to BNE airport via Toombul and Skygate... Plan your public transport journey (up to Skygate) here:

Byron Easy Bus stops at OOL on the way to BNE. $50 for an Adult. Limited services though. Maybe twice a day?
