Toronto Pearson International Airport Voyage Tips and guide

Contents

Malton Airport, built on what were farmers' fields in the 1930s, hosted its first scheduled passenger flight (a Trans-Canada Airlines DC-3 landing) on August 29, 1939. From 1940-1942, Malton hosted a World War II British Commonwealth Air Training Plan flight school. Malton Airport became Toronto International Airport in 1960. Various terminal buildings have been constructed and demolished over the years as the airport expanded; Aeroquay One (1964) was demolished in 2004 and replaced with a new Terminal 1, while Terminal 2 (1972) was demolished in 2007.

As Toronto surpassed Montreal to become Canada's largest city in the 1970s, traffic through Pearson has been steadily increasing. While flag carrier Air Canada's corporate headquarters remain in Montreal, Toronto Pearson is now the airline's largest hub. The airport is also one of Westjet's hubs.

While Montreal traffic was split for many years with the construction of an awkward outlying airport at Mirabel, a second major Toronto-area airport proposed for Pickering met with strong local opposition since the mid-1970s and was never constructed. While some short-range flights to destinations like Montreal, New York and Chicago operate from Toronto Islands airport, the bulk of Toronto's passenger volume by necessity goes through Pearson, the second-busiest airport for international traffic (behind John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City) in North America.

There are two terminals at the airport: 1 and 3 (2 was demolished due to new development). Flights are arranged in this way:

For flights to the United States, you go through U.S. border preclearance for customs and immigration after check-in. This is generally a quick process and saves any queuing in the U.S. It also allows airlines to fly to U.S. airports which do not have customs and immigration facilities, since passengers who went through border preclearance are treated as domestic passengers on arrival to the U.S. At peak times, the lines at security can be very long so allow plenty of time to get through the system.

For both Terminals 1 and 3, the international arrivals are located on the eastern side of the terminals and the domestic arrivals are located on the western side.

Just like the United States, Canada does not allow for sterile transit, so passengers connecting from one international flight to another need to pass through customs and immigration before re-checking their bags to their final destination. Ensure that you meet all the entry requirements for Canada, including having a visa if necessary, before you book your flights. The sole exception is when arriving on a non-U.S. international flight and transferring to a U.S.-bound flight in the same terminal. In that case, you don't have to clear Canadian customs and immigration, and you can proceed straight to the U.S. border preclearance facility. However, you will still need to have a visa for Canada if required for your nationality.

If your flights require you to change terminal, you must retrieve your luggage, exit the secure area, re-check your bags at the other terminal and re-clear security.

The Union Pearson Express train goes to downtown Toronto:

• 43.6831-79.61361 Union Pearson Express (UP Express) (Terminal 3 at airport), ☏ +1 416-869-3600, toll-free: +1 844-438-6687, fax: +1 416-869-1662. 5:30AM - 1:30AM. UP Express trains operate between the airport and Union Station providing connections to the Toronto subway at Bloor Station (near Dundas West Station on Line 2) and Union Station (Line 1). (UP Express also has an intermediate stop at Weston station on Lawrence Avenue West.) A trip takes 25 minutes and trains depart every 15 minutes. The station provides airline check-in kiosks, luggage racks, onboard Wi-Fi and up-to-the-minute flight information. UP Express station is at Terminal 1; the airport's Link train connects Terminal 3 to the UP Express station. Tickets and Presto cards can be purchased at the UP Express station. Adult: $12.35 cash, or $9.25 with a credit card, mobile wallet app or Presto card; senior: $6.20 cash or $5.80 with Presto card; free for children 12 and under. Long layover return-trip adult tickets (7 hours or less) are sold discounted as one-way fare at the UP Express service counter in Terminal 1 or online. (updated Jan 2024)

You can pay by tapping a debit or credit card on a Presto reader, including cards in your phone or watch. Use the same card to tap on and tap off to avoid duplicate charging of the fare. Debit cards may incur a $15 pre-authorization charge.

If you want to take advantage of lower senior (65+) or youth (13-19) fares, you can buy a Presto card at the UP Express station for $9 ($4 for the card plus a $5 minimum balance), and have it set for reduced fares at the purchase point. Otherwise, it is easier to use a credit card. Besides the UP Express, Presto is supported by many transit operators in the Greater Toronto Area. Children 12 or under ride free.

UP Express passengers must tap their card on a Presto reader on the platform before boarding the train, and tap off after arrival. If you use the intermediate stops at Bloor or Weston station, use only the UP Express Presto readers to tap on/off; do not use the GO train Presto readers.

Toronto Pearson provides a webpage indicating where to board the various bus services at Terminal 1 and 3 often indicating the column (pillar) where buses stop.

Various local buses serve Pearson airport. All accept the Presto card (see also previous section) as well as credit or debit cards for fare payment. Note: Each passenger must have separate card.

Airport taxi fares range from $26-120 (east, to Oshawa) and $33-95 (west to Burlington), including the fuel surcharge. Limousine fares are $28-132 (east) and $23-104 (west). Fares out of town are typically $1.65/km (taxi) and $1.75/km (limousine).

• Taxis to downtown Toronto run a flat rate of $65, including fuel surcharge (other areas of the city vary but are also flat rate,) while airport limousines go slightly higher ($71 to downtown Toronto). Limousines are generally slightly larger (though not stretched), most are dark-blue or black Lincoln MKT Town Cars or Toyota Highlanders and a bit more comfortable than taxis. As the airport is not in Toronto, regular Toronto city cabs do not pick up fares at the Pearson air terminals. Government approved rates can be found online.
• Fake taxis (also called "Gypsy Cabs" by the locals) are frequently found congregating around Pearson Airport. If a driver approaches you inside the arrivals hall and asks if you need a ride, and you didn't arrange a car in advance, they are definitely unlicensed (legitimate cab drivers are prohibited by law from entering the terminal building to look for passengers.) While the risk of being a victim of crime as an unlicensed taxi passenger is very low, drivers and their vehicles are not held to the same safety and maintenance standards as their licensed counterparts. If you decide to patronize a Gypsy Cab, proceed at your own risk and be sure to agree on a fare in advance!

Ride hailing passengers are picked up from the airport at the following locations with signage that states "Ride App Pickup":

• Terminal 1: Ground Level at Door Q or P
• Terminal 3: Arrivals Level at Door D.

The latter two sometimes using the same vehicles as the existing limo service but at a premium price (UberBlack for $88 to $115, UberSUV $100 to $128, of which $15 per ride goes to the Greater Toronto Airports Authority). UberX costs about $35 to $40 to downtown Toronto, and Greater Toronto Airports Authority charges a $4.50 pickup fee and $4 drop-off fee.

Pearson can be reached on foot by walking to Viscount Station (near the ALT Hotel and Value Park Lot), then taking the free Terminal Link train to your departure terminal. The station and trains are large enough to accommodate bicycles as well. Most if not all the roads to the terminal buildings prohibit bicycles and pedestrians, making Viscount the best option for those using non-motorized transport.

• Terminal Link train runs every 4-8 minutes between Terminal 1, Terminal 3 (including Sheraton Gateway Hotel) and Viscount Road (Value Park Garage, Value Park Lot and Alt Hotel). Free.
• There is no "airside" connection between terminals. For connecting flights at different terminals, take the same Terminal Link train. In addition to any time necessary for customs, baggage, and re-clearing security, plan for another 20 minutes from the arrivals area in one terminal to the check-in at the other. If you plan on checking bags, ask if you need to claim them in Toronto or if they can be checked through; it's not always possible depending on the combination of airlines and destinations.

There are various temporary or permanent art exhibitions scattered through Terminal 1, and eight permanent sculpture installations. The Royal Ontario Museum operates a small display of dinosaur fossils on the landside of International Arrivals area; other partners for temporary exhibitions include Canada's Sports Hall of Fame, the CONTACT Photography Festival, Design Exchange, Ontario Crafts Council and Open Studio.

After security, there are a number of bars and cafes embedded in the departure gate area. The tables are equipped with tablets and tables.
