Scarborough is on the far east side of Toronto, so the trip to Pearson crosses the whole city. It is one of the longest in-city transfers we do, and traffic on Highway 401 sets the schedule.
From Scarborough the usual route is Highway 401 west across the city to the 427 or 409. The Don Valley Parkway and Highway 404 are used for the central and northern parts, and Highway 407 ETR can be an alternative from the north of Scarborough. Because 401 traffic is unpredictable, we check conditions before every pickup.
The trip is often 40 to 70 minutes and can take longer on weekday mornings and afternoons. A flat rate protects you from the cost of a slow 401. We suggest booking early flights the day before and leaving extra time for international departures.
Typical bookings include students and staff travelling to and from Centennial and UTSC, families from Scarborough Town Centre and Kennedy, and residents of the Bluffs area. We also run overnight transfers when the TTC and GO connections are limited.
How long is Scarborough to Pearson?
Usually 40 to 70 minutes depending on the 401. The flat rate does not change with the traffic.
Do you serve UTSC and Centennial College?
Yes. Send us the campus address or residence and the flight details and we confirm the price.
Is the 401 the only route?
No. We also use the DVP, Highway 404 and Highway 407 when they are faster. Our dispatch decides on the day.
