If you have two trolley suitcases, you are probably better off taking the cab. You could take the city transit, but it would be awkward with your luggage.

Calgary Airport’s website: http://www.calgaryairport.com/

Calgary Airport lies 17km (10 miles) from the city according to this website http://www.airwise.com/airports/int/YYC/YYC_01.html#Szene_1

I can don’t help you more.

thanks for the replies.Read in the net that there will be a temprorary shut down of the C train transit on 20th May,is it true?
Do they allow to carry 2 piece of luggage,not very big in the transit buses?

There currently is talks of a transit strike, but it's up in the air when that will be. I don't think they will allow you 2 suitcases on a city bus or the C train.

I would suggest going to the Calgary Transit website, I think they have regular updates regarding the strike. You can easily google it. Good luck!!

It's better to take cab/taxi from airport to downtown, because it won't cost you much it would be around $30. (15-20 min)
