Each price covers the whole vehicle for one direction. Times are for a clear run, so add a margin on weekday mornings.
The stretch of the 401 through Scarborough and North York is the slowest part of a Durham run. It is busiest heading west on weekday mornings, which is the same direction as the airport.
Pearson's own advice is to be there 2 hours ahead for flights within Canada and 3 hours ahead for U.S. and international flights. Count back from that, add the drive time from the table, and then add a margin for a morning departure.
Every Durham trip has to cross the full width of Toronto to reach Pearson on the west side. Highway 401 is the direct line, and it is what most lakeshore towns use: Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Courtice, Hampton, Clarington and Bowmanville.
Towns farther north are closer to Highway 407, which skips the Toronto core: Brougham, Claremont, Brooklin and Scugog. The 407 is a toll road, and no toll is ever added to your fare at the door.
Flat rate locked at booking. Sedan from $105. TNC licensed driver. Meet and greet inside the terminal.
