Travel Information

·         There are several car hire companies operating close to the terminals, in the parkade on the ground floor. You can also hire a car online with Skyscanner to save you the trouble of booking when you arrive. Take Grant McConachie Way East, to Granville Street, which brings you directly into the centre of town.

·         There’s a fast and reasonable public rail service called the Canada line, which runs from the International and Domestic Terminals right into the centre of the city. The fare is 9CAD ($9), though be aware this service stops late at night and is replaced by a bus service. If you’d like to organise your transport in advance, you can always book an airport transfer with Skyscanner.

·         If you’d prefer to take a taxi, then you can pick one up right outside the terminals. This is the most expensive way into the city, but can be more convenient for a family, or a group of 3 or 4 people. The journey should take around half an hour, and cost about 36CAD ($36).
