Frequently asked questions
How much is a taxi from Pearson to downtown Toronto?
About $60–$75 on the GTAA flat-rate tariff by zone — for example roughly $68 to the Distillery District. Beyond the zone map it's around $1.90 per kilometre.
Where is the taxi stand at Pearson?

A standard taxi seats up to four; for larger groups prebook an SUV or Sprinter van. The GTAA tariff adds about $15 for more than four passengers.
