Sergi PolischukOctober 10, 2015If you ever get stuck and will seek for quite clean space with powered seats, go to gates B1-5: http://www.torontopearson.com/rethink/t3/GatesB1-B5/

Falcon DarkstarSeptember 28, 2016Nice, modern, and clean... But beware, there are few amenities in US preclearance; only an AA club, too.Upvote28DownvoteUpvoted Feb 17
If the tsa agent points you to the line on the right....refuse with all of your might. That is the line for baby carriages and also apparently families who are flying for the first time.Upvote32Downvote
It’s busy area. A little congested but if you need help or assistance, it’ll be there. Surprisingly, if you go a little late for your check in, you get to skip the line when they call out your flight!Upvote3Downvote- Michelle Rose DombJune 5, 2022Check with your airline on your destination’s entry/re-entry. Masks on. Check-in via your airline app. Have your Vax cards ready. TSA = belts, jackets & shoes off. Customs after Tsa. Happy traveling!Upvote1Downvote

US homeland security is terrible here so be prepared to actually come early or risk missing your flight. Getting Nexus is the obvious other suggestion.Upvote1Downvote
Headed to gate A? Keep walking to the end of the concourse to get to Freshii. You'll be happier on your flight having eaten here than at the crappy places you'll pass on the way.UpvoteDownvote
ocean pilatesSeptember 12, 2013If you have an Amex platinum card look for the signs that say "cloud" before security. You get to cut the line (also works for the Amex lounges)UpvoteDownvote
Useful website to see food and stores available before and after security:Upvote1Downvote- Peter RukavinaJanuary 1, 2013I recommend Zoom Car Rental. It's offsite, but they have a free shuttle from the Viscount airport train station and rates were 50% of the majors over Christmas.Upvote1Downvote
Kevin AliOctober 28, 2013Love the self check out when you return home. Makes life easier and the line move faster.Upvote1Downvote- ocean pilatesSeptember 12, 2013They opened a freshii salad and wrap place if you take the door to the left of Gate 14. Super healthy and yummy.Upvote1Downvote
Ian RussellJune 15, 2019Wifi is awesome! Duty free and some serious deals on whiskey!😏🥃UpvoteDownvote
There are no tables or chairs immediately after security, so getting your bags put back together is an extra special challenge. They'd be very helpful.UpvoteDownvote
Beware of the garage elevators not working. Try parking on a level where you can just walk across - I believe it's P1 & P3.UpvoteDownvote
If you're tired of being gouged and looking for something comfy, go hang out at the Sheraton. Eating and drinking is far more comfy here!UpvoteDownvote
Lawrence ChongSeptember 19, 2016Near gate a14 there's a Starbucks and a bunch of ipads to use and ports to charge things, freeUpvoteDownvote

Mounir RamzyJanuary 4, 2015While the free wifi is a good addition to Pearson International Airport, yet it is very slow compared to other international airports and does not appeal to a huge airport like Pearson!UpvoteDownvote
T3 parking lot is quite busy, go higher up the level and more parking spots.UpvoteDownvote
다늬October 1, 2013If you're gate is A1-16, You can't go to the Tim Hortons. So If you want to go Tim Hortons, go to the another Tim Hortons.UpvoteDownvote

Jack GaidoNovember 13, 2012This is one of the worst airports ever, you have to get there way early because especially if you're renting a car and returning it what a joke! Also be prepared to walk a great distance here.Upvote1Downvote
