What is the cheapest way to get to Pearson Airport from TO?

[stinkynuts]

A friend has no car, and a taxi would be very expensive. Any public transportation that would be easy?

Subway/bus
I think a single ticket under two bucks

Swim?

 

[Uzo]

walking is the cheapest.

but I would rather spend the $3 and take the subway. Its fairly easy:

Train to Kipling Stn --> then take the airport express bus which goes to all terminals

Lawrence west Malton bus takes you to the edge of the airport.

I think the Sheraton downtown has a free airport express bus.

I think the Sheraton downtown has a free airport express bus.

The downtown hotels have a shuttle that costs $14 or so. It is not free.

The cheapest for him/her would be if good old SN drove them to the airport.

It is easier to get to Pearson by TTC than most people believe: Take the subway to Kipling station and the 192 Airport Rocket express bus from there. It makes only a single stop between Kipling and Pearson, runs every 12 minutes during the day, and visits all three terminals.

Just wait about 5 or 6 years, they are going to start building a link soon.

This city is the most wacked for public transit. They want you to use it, but it never goes to where you want to go in a reasonable amount of time.

Ya, I don't understand why the media keeps stating that there's no easy way to get to the airport?

If your coming from the east-end this would be a nightmare.

 

[Kailani]

TTC is by far the most affordable.

 

[Gyaos]

Rent-a-car, go to Allure, go to the Terminal. That's what I do.

Gyaos.

 

[papasmerf]

Get a friend to dive him.

"If your coming from the east-end this would be a nightmare. "

Uh, the subway comes out to the east end. ? It's even extended by the RT. It's dead easy to get to the airport from the east end.

Have you ever tried to drag luggage via RT, subway, bus? I have and it isn't quick or easy.

Exactly what I needed for my friend. Thank you, everybody!

 

[hunter001]

This has what to do with it being easy to get from the east end to the airport?

Sorry you are right. Hardly anyone need to travel with luggage.

As it is, if you take the subway from Kennedy Station, you can let your luggage sit for the entire trip to Kipling.

If try this?

I guess it is possible if your taking the red eye. Whatever...

It's $32 round trip....

 

[hunter001]

Dude.
You make no sense at all.
Mostly everyone travels with luggage. This has WHAT to do with travelling from the east end or the west end or anywhere? Get on at Kennedy. Get seat. Let luggage sit. Done.

Dude you obviously take public transit very rarely.
