Winter in Ontario can turn a 45-minute drive into 90. Here is how to plan an airport trip when the weather turns.

Leave more time, not more money

Our prices are fixed when you book, with no surge pricing. A snowstorm can slow the 401, but it will not change your fare. What it does change is timing, so give yourself a buffer.

Timing tips for departures

Arrivals are covered

If your flight is delayed by weather, we track it and your driver adjusts, free. Pickup is free up to 2 hours after you actually land.

If your flight is cancelled

When the airline cancels or reschedules, the full amount you paid becomes ride credit at any time. Send us the airline's notice.

Long trips in winter

For longer trips, especially from the west side (about 70 km or more from Pearson), booking 48 hours ahead and paying online may be required. Booking early also gives you the best chance of the vehicle you want during busy holiday weeks.

Quick answers

Do you charge more in bad weather?

No. Prices are fixed at booking and there is no surge pricing.

How much extra time should I allow in snow?

It depends on the storm, but booking an earlier pickup the evening before a snowfall is a safe habit.

What if my flight is cancelled because of weather?

The full amount paid becomes ride credit you can use any time. Send us the airline's notice.
