Grace CatindoyDecember 27, 2019Waiting louge is so comfy here! It is also surrounded by souvenir shops
Daniel TewfikMarch 19, 2013Read this infographic on why you have to put your electronic devices away during takeoff. You know you've always wanted to know... Read more
Justin OrdovezaJune 7, 2023In terminal 7 there is a seating area to rest before you go through security
Free wi-fi and you can clear US customs from this end to avoid the crazy lineup in Miami. \o/
The picture of this airport is totally wrong, the airport pictured is the downtown city centre airport (Billy Bishop). LoL!
Magnus BorgMarch 2, 2012If you want access to the lounge remember your card, unless you are traveling with AC. Their computer system or incompetent personal can't look you up!- trout soupMarch 5, 2015the international side is very nice. the local side is sort of like a purgatory...
Find a Maple Leaf Loung member. Perfect place to chill, get buzzed and relax before a flight. ^^
Terminal 3 flyers beware: one of the gates is under construction so they have been funneling 3 gates into 2 making for really long security lineups
John ChinelloJanuary 23, 2011Toronto Airport Express is a great way to get downtown in comfort and with free wi-fi on the bus. And for $21 each way!
James ZimenoffAugust 7, 2014If flying to the US, give yourself plenty of time for customs preclearance. Also, food/drink choices are limited in the secure area.
Mike SchwedeAugust 7, 2012East your last great spare ribs before departing from Canada at Casey's Bici near Gate E73. Yummi.
Many shops quote tax free prices and then add tax on at the till without telling you
If you rush to your gate before they call your row, you are not doing anyone a service. All you accomplish is the feat of slowing down boarding and pissing everyone else off.
U.S. Customs is the bane of my existence. If you're flying to the U.S., factor in at least a good 15 minutes.
Talk to your taxi drivers! Surprising how many great tips, tricks, and relationships you can get.
Massive huge airport. Customs, immigration officers were great. WiFi was quick to connect.
The main security level is frequently very busy. Go downstairs instead, usually much quieter and faster
Henry KoOctober 1, 2012If you're going to the US with baggage check in, you better come early. They combine all US destinations in one lane. Long wait!!
It's nice in T1 now with even more new shops. I love, love, love David's Tea!
They now have great, gluten-free food options at the Kensington Food Court! :)
Kotak Mahindra BankMay 3, 2012Airport Offer - Kotak Royale Visa Signature Credit Card members get 2 free accesses/ calendar qrtr wth complimntry food & beverage. Lounges at Domestic and International Departures Term 1,3 T&C apply. Read more
Show up 25 hours before your flight to be safe. Also the rental car return in on the lower level of Terminal 1.
Reena B-SJune 10, 2015Travelling home from the US with a connection in YYZ? Consider a longer connection - customs & baggage re-claim system adds extra time & confusion to an already confusing and poorly designed terminal.
Ben McCordOctober 31, 2012Dear people pulling out from the airport. You are not on the 401 yet so travelling 140 in a 60 zone is a bit ambitious.
Not a ton of selections for food. I like the paninis and chef salad right after customs and duty free is the same inside + out but cute cheap T-shirts in newspaper/magazine store :)
Windows CanadaDecember 5, 2011Starting Dec. 5th, Windows Picture Perfect Holiday will be at Toronto Pearson Airport. Stop in & see us at Gate 141 in T1 or Gate C27 in T3 to pose for your own holiday photo.
Gate D Terminal 1 has a downstairs security lineup. No line on the busiest travel day of the year=win
Josh 🌶☢August 21, 2022Tip for surviving the worst airport: embrace premeditatio malorum, the practice of considering future evils. Plan on 2hr delay and missed connection. Then, when it's only a 1hr delay, life is good.
To use the free wi-fi, you have to open up a browser window and agree to the t&c. And then you're all set.
John KlimekFebruary 26, 2019When I’m in from Chicago, I like to get some authentic Toronto pizza here
Canada's largest airport and surprisingly easy to navigate.
Gustavo LunaJune 30, 2013If you have a connection flight, take enough time to walk to the final gate, sometimes it is really crowded
Peter StraussOctober 28, 2014Headache central. I like the idea of iPad menu things but I find them highly suspect and I do not trust them...
Kat YusonAugust 15, 2013Looking for cellphone parking? Don't make the second left-hand turn, go straight through the lights.
What can I say? It's an airport. Pretty nice looking, ample seating etc.
