Getting to and through the airport is often the most stressful part of travelling. But it doesn't have to be that way. Imagine arriving at the airport, breezing through security with short wait times (less than 5 minutes on average), and lounging in a terminal with a range of dining and retail options — and getting friendly and efficient service from staff all the while. Does this easy and convenient airport experience sound too good to be true? Well, open your eyes because it's real, and waiting for you at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport. Travelling to, from and through YTZ is simple.
