TRANSIT FLY Review: While there is no direct train service from Toronto Pearson International Airport to the downtown area, several very good airport transportation options are available. Various airport shuttle operators provide service from the Toronto Airport to cities such as: Hamilton, London, Detroit, Niagara, Buffalo and many others. For service to Downtown Toronto hotels the Pacific Western Toronto Airport Express Shuttle provides direct service. Those traveling with less luggage, the TTC offers several subway system connector buses including the Route #192 Airport Rocket Bus that takes passengers to the Kipling Subway Station in only 20 minutes (Kipling is the nearest station from YYZ). From the Kipling Subway Station passengers can reach Central Toronto by train in only 25-30 minutes. |
