I've booked tickets from Melbourne to Santiago with Qantas. I'm going MEL to SYD T3 (arrives 9.55am) then SYD T1 to SCL (departs 11.25am) on a Monday. When I transfer between terminals in Sydney, what is the procedure? The checked luggage is already through I'm guessing. I read there's a shuttle bus, how long does it take? Do I then have to go through security and customs again? Is an hour and a half long enough to do all this?
