Trusted Cross-Border Professionals: Federally Licensed & Certified
US DOT Registered
Airport Transportation Toronto holds United States Department of Transportation commercial registration — the federal licence required by law to transport paying passengers across the US border. This is why we can legally offer flat-rate service to Buffalo Airport (BUF) and Detroit Airport (DTW). Most Toronto taxi services are Ontario-licensed only and cannot legally cross the border with passengers for hire.
Provincial Transport Specialist: Ontario Certified for Commercial Vehicles
CVOR Certified — Ontario
Airport Transportation Toronto holds a Commercial Vehicle Operator’s Registration (CVOR) issued by the Province of Ontario — required for all licensed commercial ground transport operations in Ontario. CVOR certification confirms our vehicles are inspected, our drivers are background-checked, and our insurance meets provincial commercial transport standards. You are riding with a legally registered, provincially certified operator. Not all private drivers and small operators hold CVOR.
What is the best option for airport transfers in Toronto?
Is Uber cheaper than an airport taxi or limo in Toronto?
During off-peak hours, Uber may appear cheaper. During peak hours, holidays, bad weather, and busy periods at Pearson Airport (YYZ), Uber surge pricing regularly reaches 2–5× the base fare — making it significantly more expensive. Airport Transportation Toronto’s flat rate from $70 (sedan) is locked at booking and never changes regardless of demand or time of day.
Can I book an airport taxi in Toronto in advance?
Yes — and that is exactly how Airport Transportation Toronto works. Every booking is pre-arranged, never on-demand. Book online in under two minutes, by phone at (888) 786-8007, or via WhatsApp at (647) 251-8007. We recommend booking at least 24 hours ahead to guarantee your vehicle class. Your driver is confirmed in writing before your travel day with your flat rate locked.
Are there flat rates for Toronto airport taxis?
Yes. Airport Transportation Toronto provides guaranteed flat-rate airport taxi service from $70 (sedan) and from $120 (full-size SUV). The rate is confirmed in writing at booking and never changes — no surge pricing, no airport surcharges, no traffic adjustments. Available to and from Pearson (YYZ), Billy Bishop (YTZ), and Hamilton (YHM).

The Questions Toronto Travellers
Ask Most Often
The questions travellers ask most when choosing airport transportation in Toronto — answered directly and without the marketing spin.
Flat Rate — Confirmed Before Your Travel Day
The rate you receive at booking is the rate you pay at trip end. No surge pricing, no airport surcharges, no traffic adjustments, no flight-delay fees. Your confirmed flat rate is provided in writing by email immediately after booking — and it never changes.
Real-Time Flight Tracking — Automatic Delay Adjustment
Your driver monitors your specific flight from departure through landing. Flight delayed 30 minutes? Driver adjusts automatically at no charge. Included on every airport pickup booking.
Driver Arrives 15 Minutes Early — Every Time
Our operational standard is 15 minutes early — not “on time.” Your driver is positioned and waiting before your scheduled pickup on every booking without exception. For 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM flights, this eliminates the anxiety of a late driver on your most time-sensitive travel days.
US DOT Registered for Cross-Border Service
Airport Transportation Toronto holds active US Department of Transportation registration for cross-border service to Buffalo Niagara Airport (BUF) and Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW). Your cross-border transfer operates under federally regulated standards.

- Licensed · Certified · Insured
Our Credentials & Certifications
Two regulatory certifications most private car services in Toronto do not hold — and why they matter to every passenger who books with us.
US DOT
United States Department of Transportation — Registered Carrier
US DOT registration is a federal requirement for any company that operates commercial ground transportation between Canada and the United States. Airport Transportation Toronto holds active DOT registration for cross-border service to Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) and Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW).
What this means for you: your cross-border transfer operates under federally regulated standards — driver licensing requirements, vehicle safety standards, and insurance minimums mandated by the US Department of Transportation. Many services offering Toronto to Buffalo Airport and Toronto to Detroit Airport routes are not properly licensed for US operations. Airport Transportation Toronto is.
CVOR
Ontario Commercial Vehicle Operator's Registration — Certified
Ontario’s CVOR certification is issued by the Ministry of Transportation and is required for commercial carriers operating vehicles above 4,500 kg on Ontario highways. The certification requires ongoing compliance with Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act, commercial vehicle safety standards, driver abstract reviews, and periodic carrier safety audits.
For passengers, CVOR certification means Airport Transportation Toronto operates under the same regulatory framework as licensed commercial carriers. When booking airport transportation in Toronto, CVOR certification is one of the most important due-diligence questions you can ask — particularly for long-distance Ontario transfers, family travel, and corporate bookings.
