Airport Transfers from or to Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB)

One-Way Service
One-Way Service covers one journey between two addresses: YQB to the Ross-Gaudreault cruise terminal, the airport to an office in Sainte-Foy, the terminal to a hotel in Charlevoix. 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 YQB to a chalet near Mont-Sainte-Anne at the start of a ski week, then back to the terminal on the last day. During Carnaval in February, cars around Québec are reserved early. 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 YQB 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.

Jean Lesage handled 1,819,553 passengers in 2025. Everything happens in one terminal with two sections: the domestic side and the international side, which opened in 2017 and was joined to the domestic side in 2019. There is no US preclearance at YQB; if you fly to the United States, you complete the US formalities at the American airport of arrival.

Downtown Quebec City is 16 km from the terminal, 20–25 minutes by car on a normal day. Sherbrooke, in the Eastern Townships, is 230 km, 2 hours 30 minutes to 3 hours 25 minutes. Montréal is about 251 km to the south-west, 2 hours 50 minutes to 3 hours 50 minutes.

Sprinter Van Service at Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB)

In winter, ski groups fill many of the vans leaving YQB. Mont-Sainte-Anne, in the mountains north-east of the city, has about 70 trails, 9 lifts and a gondola, and it lies about 58 km from the terminal, 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes. A Sprinter van carries up to 12 passengers with their luggage. Skis and boot bags take room, so list them when you book, and the vehicle is matched to the load. When friends fly in on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own.

Quebec law requires winter tires from 1 December to 15 March on vehicles registered in the province, which matters on the road up to the slopes. When you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation.

Charter Bus Service at Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB)

The Carnaval de Québec, set for 5 to 14 February 2027, and the Festival d'été in July bring school groups and tour groups to the city. Coaches come in several sizes with up to 56 seats, and the luggage travels in the hold. The City limits coaches inside the walls of Old Québec, so groups are usually set down near the Assemblée nationale, just outside them.

From spring to autumn, cruise passengers also travel between the airport and the port. The port has two cruise terminals: Ross-Gaudreault, below the old town, and Terminal 30, built for ships carrying up to 4,000 passengers. Baie-Saint-Paul, in Charlevoix, is about 109 km from YQB, 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 55 minutes along the river, and Trois-Rivières about 122 km, 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 55 minutes.

For Carnaval week, 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.

Is there an airport in Quebec City, and how far is it from downtown?

Yes, Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB), on the west side of the city. Downtown Quebec City is 16 km from the terminal, usually 20–25 minutes by car. Book with your flight number, and the pickup follows the time you land.

Taxi or Uber at YQB, or a car booked ahead — which is better?

Bookinglane is booked before you travel: you choose the vehicle and the addresses, each transfer has its own confirmation, and for an arrival your flight number sets the pickup. Under Quebec law (chapter T-11.2), any paid ride in the province must use a qualified driver and a qualified vehicle, whoever arranges it.

Does Quebec City airport have US customs preclearance?

No. YQB has no US preclearance, and the American formalities take place at the US airport you fly into. Within the province, Montréal–Trudeau has preclearance; it is about 268 km from YQB, 3 hours to 4 hours 5 minutes by road.

How far is Mont-Sainte-Anne from Quebec City airport?

About 58 km, 50 minutes to 1 hour 10 minutes by car. Baie-Saint-Paul, in Charlevoix, is about 109 km, 1 hour 25 minutes to 1 hour 55 minutes. Enter the number of bags in the booking form; for skis, golf bags or other bulky items, tell support so the vehicle is matched to the load.

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

Yes. Ski clubs and Carnaval groups often book seats on separate flights. When a party is split on several flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own. With your request, 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 Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB) in 2026 and 2027?
