Airport TTC Instructions
1. When you arrive, ask information for where the “192 Airport Rocket Bus” departs. For Terminal 3, the bus stop should be outdoors on the arrivals level, across the first lane of traffic at post #13c . You might have to wait 20 minutes so dress warmly.
2. Have $2.75 $3.00 Canadian ready. If you don’t have it, buy some chips or a drink or ask someone for change, or ask at the information counter if they sell TTC Tokens or TTC Tickets (TTC=Toronto Transit, the tokens and tickets are $2.75).
3. Take the “192 Airport Rocket” bus to Kipling Station. Pay the driver $2.75 $3.00 when you board the bus (or pay with a token)–this one fare takes you all the way to our apartment. From Terminal 3, the bus first passes by terminal 1 and some other stops, but don’t worry, you’ll know that it’s Kipling Station because the bus will pull in and everyone will get off and go inside the station. The Airport Rocket just goes from Kipling to the Airport and back with only a few stops in between. The ride is about 20 minutes.
4. Go inside the Kipling station and down into the subway–you don’t have to pay anything extra.
5. Take the subway EAST to Dundas West station–Kipling is the end station, so you can ONLY go east.
6. At Dundas West station, go upstairs and outside following the signs that say “Buses and Streetcars”. Do not go through any exit turnstiles–there is a waiting area for the buses/streetcars so you can transfer without paying an additional fee.
7. Take the 504 King Street streetcar south to our Apt. You will pass Howard Park and you get off at Geoffrey St.
