Airport Arrivals

Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is Canada’s largest and busiest airport. As a major travel hub and with it’s location in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) it is often the choice for incoming international students. Though, as is true of many large airports, Pearson is located outside of Toronto’s downtown core and requires additional transportation to get you on campus.

To familiarize yourself with Toronto Pearson International Airport visit www.torontopearson.com/en/arrivals. Here, you can also download a Pearson Arrival Guide customized to your arrival airline.


There are many options to safely make your way between Pearson Airport to Vic’s Campus.
