Daniel RoyJanuary 25, 2015If you're flying in on an international flight, you'll have to claim your luggage to clear customs. Add to this the large size of the airport, and you should make sure you've got plenty of time.
The lineup for Tim's in T1 USA terminal can be crazy but the burger place right beside it serves a better breakfast and has coffee! One less airport line to wait in.
LornaAugust 30, 2018Much improved in recent years. WiFi works, power widely available, iPads for food order/info/web widely available, a selection of food, water fountains.
delayed flight? - terminal 1 (to has premium lounge past gate F55. 50$ for two hours, unlimited food and drinks (non top shelf drinks, 5-10$ for top shelf). Best place relax than most restaurants.
hussein sMay 22, 2016Air Canada and all other Star Alliance airlines that serve Toronto Pearson operate out of Terminal 1. The terminal is also used by non-alliance airlines Etihad Airways and Emirates.
PCL ConstructionJanuary 8, 2013The New Terminal One Development stands as one of Canada’s most successful and complex projects ever. Read more
Uber is downstairs from arrival, an escalator around B to go to underground
If you need water, just go to the Starbucks near Gate D on the departures floor and ask for "iced water". It's free.
🦄 Jessicka ChamberlinJuly 14, 2013Luggage Depot to store your stuff while you meander is all the way at the far end of Terminal 1.
Corina NewbyJanuary 4, 2013Show up late; they rush you ahead of everyone who showed up on time.Upvoted Sep 30
Print your boarding pass, get here early, and follow signs.- Brent WilsonMay 5, 2014Don't try and use the Nexus lines around 5:30 AM as it is shift change and all the CATSA staff use it to get into work. Go down a level
Carol BrownJanuary 4, 2019The lounge is a nice place to visit if you're an American Express card holder
Alina DJuly 19, 2018Nice waiting areas now at Pearson but beware, the electric plugs don’t work. You cannot charge your devices!
Crescentrating Halal Friendly TravelJuly 18, 2011The Prayer room(inter faith room) is closer to the domestic arrivals.Prayer mats & Qibla direction is clearly marked.Jum'ah prayers also conducted on Fridays.
Too many people write crap because of some attitude towards airlines. I'm a frequent flyer and this is one of the best terminals & airports in the continent!!
Amanda AlleyFebruary 10, 2013Never get here early! They don't let you into customs and let everyone who are lazy and came late to go in front of you!
Stephen PunwasiDecember 15, 2012The Nexus line is usually longer then the regular line because of the new X-Ray machine that needs to be rebooted on a jam.
Lawrence AhernJanuary 30, 2013Make sure everyone in your party can operate self checkin or you have to wait while they que..... Zzzz
Dave Sumner SmithNovember 11, 2013Passport control is much less intimidatory than many of those in the US. Quicker too
Flights arriving in the evening lack support from staff. 30minutes for my luggage to come out on the carrousel.
It's probably too late for you, but fly into Terminal 3 instead. The customs line here is always longer.
Carmen Morales PlascenciaJuly 6, 2013Very good Wi-Fi service, usually at other airports is really slow.
- Saad CheemaAugust 28, 2010Be ready for a long walk. The temporary terminal extension for USA flights takes just over seven minutes. Having a trolly bag for your trip through this teminal wouldn't be a bad idea.
Devin HendersonMay 18, 2013Air Canada USA departures is a shit show - couldn't be any more disorganized or confusing and there is generally ONE person to provide guidance.
Margaret Cybulski MurrayAugust 27, 2018Only two US border agents on duty. Plane delayed waiting for passengers to clear customs. Get there early
Karim KanjiDecember 10, 2010Hey GTAA! Put more signs in this place so people actually know where to go. Sheesh!
If you're flying out early- note that customs doesn't open until 4:30 am but the line is long already by 4:00. Ugh
Kim ParkeAugust 7, 2011This place is the twilight zone! Avoid it at all costs. Never get here early for a flight. They'll just make you wait for hours while all the late people cut ahead of you. What a shit hole!
Jonathan HarrisOctober 4, 2012Air Canada representatives are extremely rude and condescending towards customers. Especially united customers. To void fees for everything you have to talk to united customer service.

"Nice and relaxing ... Hard to get a seat near an outlet to recharge. Great soup"
Kevin Hardy 
"They've come a long way in the last several years- processing is quick and efficient, particularly for Global Entry passengers."
Zach R
"Make sure to carry your American Express gold or platinum card with you when you go through your security check. AmEx cardholders can go right through the priority lane to skip the huge lineups!"
