Airport Transportation in Toronto

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Toronto Pearson International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Our airport transportation in Toronto runs from Pearson's Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 to downtown Toronto and the waterfront, the business districts of Mississauga and North York, and on to Hamilton, Niagara Falls and cottage country.

Toronto Airport Transfers

Toronto airport transfers start in the arrivals area of your terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, where your driver meets you once you are through customs. Give us your flight number when you book: we follow its arrival, and the price for your vehicle is fixed before you fly.

Choose a sedan for a couple or a business trip, or an SUV or van for families and groups with winter luggage. Every Toronto airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, condo, office or family home across the Greater Toronto Area, or further on to Niagara Falls.

Toronto Airport Shuttle

Our Toronto airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, and it leaves as soon as you are through arrivals, with no stops for other passengers. There is room for suitcases, skis, golf bags and strollers, which suits families, groups heading to Niagara Falls or cottage country, and teams arriving for conferences downtown.

Landing at Toronto Airport

Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is in Mississauga, north-west of downtown Toronto. It has two passenger terminals: Terminal 1, for Air Canada and most Star Alliance airlines, and Terminal 3, for WestJet, Porter, Air Transat and many other carriers. The free Terminal Link train connects them, so check which one your flight uses before you land.

If you arrive from outside Canada, you clear Canadian border services first: many travelers complete their declaration at the primary inspection kiosks or with Advance Declaration in the ArriveCAN app, then speak to a border officer. After baggage claim, you exit through the customs hall into the arrivals level of your terminal, where pre-booked drivers meet passengers.

Toronto Airport Transportation FAQs

Where will my driver meet me at Toronto Airport?

In the arrivals area of your terminal, Terminal 1 or Terminal 3, once you are through customs and baggage claim. Check your terminal before you land, as the two are a train ride apart; the meeting point is in your confirmation.

How far is Toronto Pearson Airport from downtown Toronto?

Pearson is in Mississauga, north-west of downtown Toronto, about 22 to 27 km by road depending on where you are going. Your private transfer takes you straight from the terminal to your address.

Yes. We serve hotels, offices, condos and family homes across the Greater Toronto Area, including the business districts of Mississauga and North York.

Which terminal will I arrive at?

Do I need an eTA to fly into Toronto?

Most visitors from visa-exempt countries need an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) before flying to Canada; US citizens do not. Travelers from other countries may need a visa, so check the Government of Canada's requirements for your passport.

No. Decline rides from anyone approaching you inside the terminal. With a pre-booked transfer, your driver, vehicle and price are confirmed before you land; check the company name before getting in.

What happens if my flight is delayed or canceled?

We follow the arrival of the flight on your reservation, so a delay on that flight is covered. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or the flight is canceled, update it in Manage your booking so your pickup can be moved.

Can I book a ride back to Toronto Pearson?

Yes, as a one-way departure or on a round-trip reservation. Give your departure time and terminal; flights to the United States clear US preclearance at Pearson before boarding, so allow for it in your pickup time.

Toronto winters are cold and snowy, and the drive can be slower in a storm. Keep a warm layer in your carry-on and allow extra time when you book a ride back to the airport in winter.
