Family airport transfer in Toronto: bags, seats and the right vehicle

A family airport transfer comes down to three questions: how many people, how many bags and how much time you have. Get these right and the ride is easy. Get them wrong and you end up squeezing into a car that is too small. This guide shows how to choose the vehicle and what to tell us when you book. Read on for family airport transfer in plain words.

Start with the numbers

Count the people, then count the bags. Count carry-ons too, and strollers, instruments or sports gear. Many families have fewer people than bags, and the bags decide the vehicle. Our Eco sedan seats 1 to 3 passengers, and our Business SUV seats 1 to 6. If you are four, you need the SUV, even if you only have a few bags.

Sedan or SUV?

• Eco sedan (1 to 3 passengers). Good for a couple with a child, or a small family with moderate luggage.



• Business SUV (1 to 6 passengers). Good for families of four or more, or for any group with many suitcases.

When you are not sure, choose the bigger vehicle. A little extra room is cheaper than a stressful ride. See the prices of both on the price page.

Children and seats

If you travel with babies or young children, tell us their ages when you book and ask about child seats before you confirm, so we can tell you honestly what is possible for your trip. Do not leave it for the day. Rules for child restraints are set by law, so check the official Ontario guidance too.

Timing with children

Long flights and short nights make everything slower. Your driver tracks your flight, so there is no stress about a late landing. You get 60 minutes of free waiting time after you land, which gives you time for immigration, bags and a bathroom stop. See the full rules in our terms.

Meeting at the airport

With a meet-and-greet, your driver waits inside the terminal. You do not have to walk through a pick-up zone with children and luggage. We send the details before you fly. Read more in where to meet your driver at Pearson.

A checklist for families

1. Tell us the number of people and their ages.
2. Tell us the number of suitcases, strollers and other items.
3. Ask about child seats before you book.
4. Give us your flight number and terminal.
5. Keep snacks and water in your hand luggage.

Staying in town longer?

If you are staying a few days, a day trip is easier with a driver. See our day trip from Toronto and private tours. We plan around nap times and meal breaks if you tell us.

Booking a family airport transfer

A good family airport transfer starts with honest numbers. Count every bag, tell us the ages of the children and share your flight number. You can check the arrival details on the Toronto Pearson website. Then your family airport transfer is booked, tracked and waiting for you. A little planning keeps family airport transfer simple.

What if our flight is delayed with young children?
