One-Way Service
One-Way Service covers one journey between two addresses: Billy Bishop to a bank tower on Bay Street, the island airport to a hotel in Mississauga, Eireann Quay to a winery in Niagara-on-the-Lake. For an airport pickup, your chauffeur checks the flight status and times the pickup to when you actually land, and your booking confirmation shows where to meet the chauffeur; the exact spot follows the airport's own pickup rules.
Round-Trip Service
Round-Trip Service books both directions in one reservation: from the mainland pavilion to a hotel near the convention centre on Front Street when your morning flight lands, and back to Eireann Quay for the evening departure. When a trip lasts a single day, the return leg matters as much as the arrival. With both directions in one booking, the return is secured from the start; you set both pickup times yourself, and the confirmation lists them.
Hourly Service
Some arrival days do not end at one address. With hourly service from YTZ you choose at booking where the day starts, where it ends and how many hours you need, and the same chauffeur and vehicle remain with you for that whole period. Send the day's program with the booking, so the chauffeur has it before you land. It suits a day built around appointments rather than a single destination.

Billy Bishop lies at the western end of the Toronto Islands, facing the downtown waterfront. It handled about 1.73 million passengers in 2022, the latest year with a published figure, and has one passenger terminal, on the island. Cars do not drive onto the island: they load and unload on the mainland, at the pavilion at the foot of Eireann Quay. From the pavilion you walk to the terminal through a tunnel for pedestrians, about 240 m long and fitted with moving walkways, or cross the narrow Western Gap by ferry. A US customs facility opened at the airport in March 2026. With US preclearance, you clear US customs before boarding a flight to the US.

Downtown Toronto is only 4 km from the pavilion, 10–15 minutes. Mississauga is 26 km, 30–40 minutes, and Vaughan 27 km, also 30–40 minutes. Markham lies 33 km north-east, 40–55 minutes. Hamilton is 66 km, 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes.

For an arrival, your chauffeur checks the flight status and times the pickup to when you actually land, and your booking confirmation shows where to meet the chauffeur; the exact spot follows the airport's own pickup rules. For a departure, you set the pickup time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.

Sprinter Van Service at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ)

A team coming for a show at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre is a typical van group here: the venue on Front Street offers 442,000 sq ft of exhibit space, and teams bring laptops, display stands and boxes of brochures. A Sprinter van carries up to 12 passengers with their luggage. Say in the booking how many cases come along, and the vehicle is matched to the load. When colleagues fly in on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own. When you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation.

Remember that every bag crosses the water with you, through the tunnel or on the ferry, before it reaches the vehicle on the mainland. If part of the team lands at Toronto Pearson instead, that airport is about 32 km west, 35–45 minutes by road, so plan two pickups.

Charter Bus Service at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ)

From the third Friday of August to Labour Day, the Canadian National Exhibition fills Exhibition Place, whose Enercare Centre offers about 1 million sq ft of halls. Exhibitors and tour groups flying in for the exhibition or other waterfront shows do best travelling together. Coaches come in several sizes with up to 56 seats, and the luggage travels in the hold, so the whole party travels as one.

Day trips go south and east. Niagara Falls is 127 km, 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 55 minutes. Niagara-on-the-Lake, with 39 wineries, is about 126 km, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours. Kingston, at the eastern end of Lake Ontario, is about 267 km, 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours 45 minutes.

During the exhibition weeks, local vehicles and drivers are booked up early. If your plans go beyond a standard booking, write to support with the dates, addresses, number of passengers, flights and luggage, and the team will arrange it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your airport transfer with Bookinglane.

Where is Billy Bishop Airport?

On the Toronto Islands, across a narrow channel from the foot of Bathurst Street, 4 km from downtown Toronto, about 10–15 minutes. The 509 Harbourfront streetcar serves the corner of Bathurst Street and Queens Quay, one block north of the ferry dock.

Can you drive to Billy Bishop Airport?

Only as far as the mainland. Cars pick up and drop off at the pavilion at the foot of Eireann Quay, and you cover the last part on foot through the tunnel or by ferry. Book with your flight number, and the pickup follows the time you land.

Is there a tunnel to Billy Bishop Airport, and how often does the ferry run?

Yes. The pedestrian tunnel is about 240 m long, with moving walkways, and links the mainland pavilion with the island terminal. The ferry across the Western Gap runs every 15 minutes and carries passengers from 5:30 am to midnight.

Is Billy Bishop an international airport?

Yes, with flights to the United States. Since March 2026 travellers bound for the US clear US customs at the airport before boarding. Porter is the main airline, and Air Canada has flown to New York LaGuardia from the island since 29 March 2026.

Our group arrives on different flights — can that be arranged?

Yes. A conference team often comes on two or three Porter flights, and when it arrives on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own. Before you book, tell support how many cases, boxes or sports bags travel with the party, not only the number of passengers.

What do passengers need to know about Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) in 2026 and 2027?

The US preclearance facility opened on 10 March 2026, and the airport expects it to let airlines add up to 20 new US destinations. West of downtown, full reconstruction of the Gardiner between Highway 427 and the Humber River may begin in 2027.
