From your gate to the car - Terminal 1
- Deplane and follow Baggage Claim

- Clear customs (international arrivals)
International arrivals clear CBSA before collecting bags; domestic arrivals go straight to the carousels, then follow the Ground Transportation signs to the arrivals level.
- Collect your luggage
Bags arrive on the Terminal 1 carousels, with oversized items at the outsized-baggage area.
- Meet your chauffeur
Pre-arranged pickups at Terminal 1 are coordinated at Door A on the arrivals level, where a Pre-Arranged Services desk pages your chauffeur; or meet inside with a name board for meet and greet. We confirm your exact door and meeting point in your booking.

Terminal 1 is Pearson largest terminal. Air Canada and its Star Alliance partners operate here, along with many international carriers. If you are flying Air Canada, United, Lufthansa or a Star Alliance airline, you will almost certainly arrive at T1.
Where pre-arranged pickups happen at Terminal 1
Toronto Pearson runs a coordinated pre-arranged pickup system. From the Terminal 1 arrivals level, pre-arranged limos are dispatched from Door A, where a GTAA-staffed Pre-Arranged Services desk pages your chauffeur from the staging area to the curb. If you prefer to be met, our meet-and-greet chauffeur waits inside the arrivals hall with a name board and walks you to the car. Either way, we send your exact door and meeting point with your booking confirmation and coordinate by phone once you have your bags - so there is no wandering the curb after a long flight.
If your flight is late or customs is slow
We watch your flight live and shift the pickup to your real landing time. A complimentary wait window covers normal delays and customs queues, so you are never penalised for a late arrival.
