How should a short Sydney stay around New Year's Eve work with a dawn flight?

We arrive in late December, have roughly two full days and fly out very early on 1 January.

    A paid viewing area is only worthwhile if its exit timing still allows sleep and airport travel.

    Make the airport departure the fixed point, then choose an NYE plan with a clear route back to your accommodation and an early transfer. Sydney's major celebrations can involve road closures and transport changes, so verify the current official event plan.
