FlixBus launches first connections to Toronto Pearson International Airport

24/01/2023

Kitchener, Waterloo and Toronto Union Station trips start on January 26, 2023 

New York, NY. (January 24, 2023). FlixBus, North America's fastest-growing intercity bus service, is adding international connections to its Canadian domestic network with the debut of service to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) on January 26, 2023.  

FlixBus is adding new service to its Waterloo-Toronto line with new travel options running on Sundays, Thursdays and Fridays with two trips daily in each direction. On service days, buses will leave Waterloo at 10 a.m. and 5:30 p.m., arriving at Toronto Pearson International Airport at 11:20 a.m. and 6:50 p.m. respectively. Trips running in the opposite direction leave from Toronto Union Station at 7:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. with arrivals at YYZ at 8:00 a.m. and 2:40 p.m. Tickets start as low as $15.99 (CAD).  

This new service is also a boon for Ontario college students with flexible departure times and direct routes from the Kitchener/Waterloo metro area to cut down on travel times as compared to public transportation options.  

With more Toronto Pearson connections planned for 2023, this is a huge first step for FlixBus’ intercity bus network in Canada to provide more affordable, convenient and sustainable travel options for those who wish to see the world, no matter their budgets.  

Save money and carbon emissions with intercity buses 

In addition to providing convenient, affordable bus service throughout the United States and Canada, FlixBus puts the power of sustainability into riders’ hands through optional carbon offset credits:  

  • FlixBus has collaborated with atmosfair to offer customers the option to travel climate friendly on their FlixBus journey. Customers can purchase “CO2 Compensation” tickets during booking, thereby making a voluntary environmental contribution.  

  • The optional cost of traveling green will be added to customers' ticket prices, approximately 1-3% of the original ticket price. 

  • 75% of climate contribution donations in the United States and Canada are invested in atmosfair’s UN-accredited Gold Standard Climate Protection Project Cleaner Cook Stoves in Rwanda

  • The remaining 25% flows into the “Future of Mobility Fund” set up together by Flix and atmosfair, to drive sustainable mobility and decarbonization in the cities and communities where we operate. These donations help to take emerging carbon-neutral technologies out of the lab and onto the road for real impact. Customers will also support local communities, NGOs and volunteer groups to make eco-friendly living choices accessible to everyone.
