Renting A Toronto Airport Limo

If you are flying to Toronto and wish to rent a limousine to take you to your hotel in the city you should have no problem finding one at the airport

. Approximately 360 taxicabs and 270 limousines have been issued special permits to serve incoming passengers to the airport. These regulations are intended for the comfort and safety of passengers arriving on the incoming flights and then travelling to their destinations. The permits are issued to ensure that the limos meet the required standards and that the passengers are fairly charged at predetermined rates, according to the distance they travel.

However, if you choose to rent one through a specific firm, or a particular type of limo that you especially want, it is best to pre-arrange this.

When renting a Toronto Airport limo, there are certain restrictions that apply to them. It may be a good idea for you to know a little about them.

TheGreater Toronto Airports Authority(GTAA) is responsible for the regulation of Toronto Pearson International Airport, which is Canadas busiest airport, and handles over 30 million passengers per year. There are, in addition, three other airports. There are the two much smaller Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, which is situated on the Toronto Islands, and the Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport, which is in Markham. Then there is the Toronto Downsview Airport, but this is owned by Canada De Havilland, and is exclusively for the use of an aircraft factory.

The Toronto Licensing Commission is the organisation that issues taxi licenses. They also offer a variety of taxi and limousine training courses, as well as refresher courses, when necessary. These measures all help to keep the standards of the drivers and their vehicles to the highest possible standard.

TheGreater Toronto Airport Authorityissues licenses and guidelines for cabs and limos at the airport itself.

Toronto taxicabs and limos are permitted to drop passengers off at the main airport, which is the Toronto Pearson International Airport to the West of Toronto at Mississauga. However, fetching and picking up passengers is a different story and requires an extra permit. If you arrive at the airport, there are normally plenty of permitted taxis and limos available to take you to your destination. It is usually not necessary to make a reservation.

However if you want a particular limo in Toronto, or you have special needs, such as a baby car seat or wheelchair accessibility, this must be pre-arranged with the airport authority at the time of booking your seat on the flight, so that the additional measures can be taken.

Although the rates are pre-determined, there can be surcharges on such things as excess baggage, and arrangements for this to be transported in a second vehicle.

For the protection of the livelihood of local taxi and limo owners, the City of Toronto has issued a restriction on non-Toronto cabs and limos from picking up passengers in Toronto. Outsiders need to get a special license to operate in this area.
