Fantastic experience all around. The terminal is east to get to, clean, bright, not crowded, and it has everything you need while you’re waiting for your flight. Lots of seating of different types with plenty of outlets so you can get work done while waiting. No wifi or screens on Porter’s planes so download a couple shows on Netflix before you leave. Security is efficient and the agents are definitely more friendly than at Pearson. Coming in on the GO is so convenient, just grab the free shuttle from Union. It will wait until a second bus arrives so you’ll never be standing on the curb wondering where the bus is. On arrival it’s not unusual for me to be sitting on the train only 25-30 minutes after my flight lands because of the efficiency of the terminal and the shuttle service. Signage is a little confusing inside the terminal for people on their first visit if you’re used to larger airports. There are no gates, just doors to access where you board your plane. If you need help, just ask and people will assist you.

Let me tell you a joke. I was on a 6:00 flight to Boston and I arrived at the gate with 30 minutes to go. At the same time, there was an African-American on my left, a white man on my right, and I was yellow, and we were all on the same flight. The counter told me I needed to pay $180 CAD to change to the 8:00 flight and the black guy next to me needed to pay $240 CAD. And by this time the white man had already taken his boarding pass to security. The receptionist didn't explain why, and he didn't seem to want to explain anything. Couldn't believe this was happening in Toronto in 2023. The real magic realism is Porter Airlines.

  • Dominic Roussel

A great airport! Simple, to the point, and just what you need. It is so well located downtown and quick access to everything in Toronto. It is such a breeze compared to any other airport that has massive congestion and is located far away from anything accessible. Landing here is a bit of a jolt on touchdown because the runway is not long. So brace yourselves and hopefully you don't have an open drink container. The waiting lounge is comfortable and has many amenities: restaurants, bathrooms, water refile station, various chair types, and loads ot tables to work from.

  • Mary M

Much smaller in size in comparison to Toronto Pearson. You can either take a ferry or walk in the underground tunnel to get to the airport itself. The check in process was easy. Really enjoyed the lounging area, the airport is clean and convenient. The city views taking off is spectacular! I would very much rather fly out of Billy Bishop if I can.

  • Philip Cheng

I love this airport. Much better than the Pearson airport. No long line up for departure and arrival and you can park outside for FREE. The only problem is it doesn't have a US custom which means you need to go thru US custom in US which maybe a long line up. Just be careful when you drive there and don't enter street car lane.

  • Michael Gfroerer

I've never been in this airport and don't have a need to. I know for a fact, however, that Toronto Island residents hate it and want it gone. It's really not in the right place and only seems to serve those who don't have time to go to Pearson. This airport is a blight on the Toronto waterfront.

  • Marco Mazz

There is a guy who works at the gate booth who is extremely rude and has no respect. I commute here everyday for work and he is by far the rudest person who works here. Everyone else in the entire airport staff is extremely friendly and helpful, except for him.

  • B S

I always enjoyed taking flights from here to Ottawa or New Brunswick avoiding Pearson international whenever possible. Conveniently located and easily accessible by public transit Uber or taxi. The addition of the tunnel is excellent clean and spacious

  • Tushar Unadkat

For passengers with accessibility needs, challenges arise when the elevator is out of order at YTZ. Contacting the airline for assistance may lead to delays. However, the airport's downtown location is convenient for domestic and US flights.

  • Kevin Earle

I picked up my daughter arriving on Porter Airways. Found a nice place to park along the curb on the roadway and was there for an hour at no charge before she arrived. I had driven from Newmarket at 7pm on a Monday night and was

  • Carol F

Located in downtown Toronto, the Billy Bishop Airport Ferry Terminal is a convenient gateway for passengers flying at Billy Bishop Airport. This airport offers an alternative to the busier Pearson International Airport, making it an

  • Nick Titcombe

Billy Bishop Airport is a hidden secret. Avoid long lines and hours of needless waiting at Pearson and fly downtown whenever you can. Use the tunnel to walk in or out. It's not a far walk and significantly faster than the ferry.

  • Ghassan Shamseddine

It is really practical. They can do a lot better on having a faster and smoother security check. Also available restaurants and café rate 1 star if we were to be generous. So the airport management can work on this.

  • pvcrazyforfood reviews

Flying 1st time from here and this airport is awesome. It's not busy and not crowded like Toronto Pearson. Check in and security check is a breeze. If you, yourself know what to take and what not to take.

  • MD. RAMIM TANVER Rahman

If you have heavy luggages, take ferry, its free. Every 15 min. If you have underground, you need to walk more. Ferry is comfortable, nice view will refresh your mind.

  • Owen Inglese

You can barely hear the ferry take off, I turned around and it was gone. Luckily I was watching my nephew and when I turned back he was still there. If that helps.

  • Susan Downey

Picked up somebody coming in on Porter flight. Short stay parking spots where you can see people coming out of the terminal. Easy pickup even in the pouring rain

  • Snyshieboo

I arrived from Montreal but, my bag didn’t make it. The baggage agents assisted me in filing a claim and even gave me a home made coconut macaroon to sooth me.

  • Muntaha Alnaboot

That's my first time going to Billy Bishop Airport. It was a nice experience. I loved it easy to get there easy to leave lots of parking .

  • el222

How does Porter get away with calling the waiting area a lounge. Horrible seats which doesn't recline & no running water in the lavatory.

  • Hendry Hu

Great looking airport, wonderful atmosphere and the ferry workers are friendly. Free shuttle busses are frequent and takes you to Union.

  • Rameshbabu Venkataraman

A must visit for people in Toronto. Also if you are flying to US from Canada choose this port as it is not too crowded like The Pearson

  • Rémy Monico
