Canberra is Australia's capital and the seat of federal government. Hobart is the capital of Tasmania. Government business drives a large portion of the traffic between these two state and national capitals. Tourism to Tasmania's food scene, MONA, and outdoor areas also generates demand, especially from Canberra's public service workforce on long weekends.
Hobart Airport is 17 km east of the CBD in Cambridge. The SkyBus shuttle runs to the city centre in about 20 minutes and costs around AUD 20 one way. Taxis take the same time and cost AUD 40 to 55. There is no rail or tram link. Rental cars are available at the terminal, which is useful since Hobart's public transport outside the city is limited.
Canberra Airport has a single terminal handling domestic flights. The terminal was rebuilt in 2013 and is modern with a good selection of food and retail. Security lines are short. The airport is 7 km from the CBD and 10 minutes by taxi. There is no rail link but ACTION bus Route 11 connects to the city interchange. Most travellers use taxi or rideshare given Canberra's car-oriented layout.

Canberra to Hobart: Capital to Capital

CBR-HBA connects Australia's national capital with Tasmania's capital across 900 km in about 1 hour 30 minutes. Qantas and QantasLink provide nonstop service with 1 to 2 daily flights. The route links the federal government precinct in Canberra with Tasmania's state government and public service. Government traffic is the backbone of the route, supplemented by leisure visitors heading to Tasmania for MONA, food, wine, and wilderness.

Canberra Airport is compact and close to the CBD at 7 km. Hobart Airport is 17 km east of the city at Cambridge, with SkyBus and taxis available. A rental car is worth considering for Tasmania since public transport outside Hobart is sparse. Connecting through Melbourne or Sydney adds options if the direct flight doesn't work with your timing. The route sees steady weekday demand with lighter weekends, except around public holiday long weekends when Canberrans head south in numbers.
