Toronto Question of getting to VIA train station from Toronto Pearson` intl. Airport
Posted: Sat April 11, 2009 05:56 PM UTC
Hi there,

As other responses in the related topic, I see that the No.192 airport rocket served from the airport to downtown Toronto. But the problem is, I went to the TTC website, and found that the destination of No.192 is at Kipling, where is still far from the majoy bus terminals (Greyhound or Coach Canada)and VIA station.

Does this mean I need to get off at Kipling and another type of transportation to the station? If so, would anybody tell me what kind of transportation I can take to get to the station?

Or any other better advices for transportation from the airport to the train station? If there is a direct way to get to the downtown will be exceptionally great, coz I am afrard that I will get lost~(my first time to Canada).

Thank you very much indeed.

As I recall you take the Rocket right to the end of the line (Kipling?) and thereafter a bus, as the Rocket does not go all the way to the airport.

Here is the website for ground transportation for the Toronto Airport:
http://www.gtaa.com/en/travellers/airport_information/ground_transportatio/public_transportatio/

If you want a bus directly to downtown - take the airport express (well it does make a few stops) and get off at Royal York Hotel and then just cross Front Street to Union Station (railroad station)

And to answer your question about the Kipling station - you transfer from the bus to the subway (underground) train which you would take to either Spadina or St George stations (one after the other), and then transfer to the University line south to Union Station.

Glad to help.
Some of your questions can be answered if you scroll back through the Toronto, and Ontario travel forums... also look at the Toronto transportation tips - do a search on Toronto, Province of Ontario, under Destinations.
Wish we had the long-discussed train link from the airport to downtown.... one day we will, and catch us up with the rest of civilization!

When you take the TTC bus (192) at the airport, the driver does not have changes. You will need the exact amount if you don't want to overpay. The price is $2.75 as of July 2009. I just took that a couple weeks ago.
