Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is Canada’s busiest airport, sitting about 15 miles west of downtown Toronto in Mississauga.
Two Terminals, One Connector Train
Pearson operates two terminals, 1 and 3, linked by the free Terminal Link Train. Most international carriers and Air Canada’s international flights use Terminal 1, while Terminal 3 handles a mix of domestic and international service from other airlines.
UP Express Beats Traffic on the 401
The UP Express train runs from Terminal 1 straight to Union Station downtown in 28 minutes, departing roughly every 15 to 20 minutes. It is usually the fastest and most predictable way downtown, especially compared to a taxi or rideshare on the 401 during rush hour.
Pearson vs. Billy Bishop
If your trip is domestic or short-haul, check fares into Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) on the waterfront too. It is a fraction of Pearson’s size but sits minutes from downtown by ferry.
