How much does it cost to park at Pearson airport

Parking at Toronto Pearson starts at C$32 a day at Value Park Garage, the lowest on-site drive-up rate Right Way Parking listed in October 2026. Lots closer to the terminals cost more, and private off-airport lots with shuttles cost less. Below, each option has its price and source, with our ride price beside the parking totals so you can compare.

On-site lot Drive-up rate (Right Way, October 2026)
Value Park Garage C$32/day
Daily Park C$42/day
Preferred Park C$46/day
Valet Care C$56/day plus a one-time C$20 fee

How much does it cost to park at Pearson Airport per day?

Right Way Parking lists the Daily Park figure as a maximum, so read it as a daily cap rather than a charge you always pay. Valet Care is the only on-site product in the table with a one-time fee added to its daily rate.

Sources disagree on what Value Park costs. Pearson’s own rate pages could not be read when we checked. Treat the table as Right Way’s October 2026 drive-up figures, not official airport rates.

Private lots outside the airport cost less per day. Myairportparking.ca says off-airport lots advertise about C$6 to 15 a day for outdoor parking and C$18 to 26 a day for covered options.

If the lowest daily rate matters most, a private lot wins on price. If you would rather stay on airport property, pick from the on-site table, then match the lot to your terminal.

Pearson airport Terminal 1 parking rates

Express Park, the lot at Terminal 1, has a drive-up rate of C$59 a day, per Right Way Parking in October 2026. That is the highest daily rate Right Way lists for any on-site lot.

Check your terminal before you pick a lot. Parkingaccess.com says Terminal 1 serves Air Canada and Star Alliance carriers. Terminal 3 serves WestJet, Air Transat and most other airlines.

Parking at one terminal still reaches the other. The Terminal Link is a free automated people mover that runs continuously between Terminal 1 and Terminal 3, according to parkingaccess.com. Parkingguidehub.com says Value Park requires a ride on it to reach the terminals.

Prime Park adds that the Link Train connects Terminal 1, Terminal 3 and the Value Park Garage, is free and runs 24/7. So a Terminal 3 flyer can park at Value Park and ride the train across.

Express Park makes sense when you fly from Terminal 1 and want to park at that terminal. If the daily rate matters more than the location, the train link opens up the cheaper on-site lots.

How much does it cost to park at Pearson airport for a week?

Every on-airport lot at Pearson bills by the day, either per 24-hour period or as a daily maximum, according to Triply. An overnight stay counts as one daily charge. A week on-site is your lot’s daily rate charged once for each day you are away.

On a week of valet, the Valet Care one-time fee is charged once, not daily. It weighs less on the total the longer you stay.

Longer trips get lower rates off airport. Myairportparking.ca says long-term off-airport parking near YYZ starts from $6.50 a day for stays of 14 days or longer.

Booking sites publish starting prices you can use to shortlist lots. Right Way lists off-site parking from $5.99 a day. Parkobility lists Pearson YYZ parking from $10.95 a day.

Starting prices are the lowest a site shows, not the rate for your dates. Enter your exact drop-off and return days with the lot to see the week total it charges.

Where is the cheapest place to park at Pearson Airport?

The cheapest listed option is a private lot off airport property. One Stop Parking showed these daily rates when we read it on November 3, 2026. Distances are from the airport, as listed.

Lot Daily rate Getting to the terminal
Chandni Victoria, 2939 Drew Rd, 5 kms CA$5.95 No shuttle
Drop N Park Valet, 6865 Airport Rd, 2.8 kms CA$5.99 24/7 valet to terminal
Jetway Parking, 934 Dixon Road, 2 kms CA$7.25 On-demand shuttle included, 24/7
EZ Airport Parking, 3356 Elmbank Road, 1 km CA$7.55 Shuttle every 30 minutes included
Simply Park Toronto Pearson, 225 Belfield Rd, 4 kms CA$7.95 Shuttle on demand, any hour
Park For U, 30 Fasken Drive, 0.5 mi CA$7.95 Valet to your terminal in your own vehicle

The lowest rate is not always the least effort. Chandni Victoria has no shuttle, so you need your own way to the terminal. Drop N Park Valet and Park For U run a valet to the terminal instead.

Booking sites list even lower starting points. Way.com shows YYZ parking from $4.50 a day. Triply lists off-site lots at C$6.25 to C$14.87 a day with free 24/7 shuttles.

How much is park and fly at Pearson for a week?

Park and fly at a private lot costs well under the on-site rates. Parkingaccess.com says lots one to three miles from Pearson run about $7 to $12 a day with a free shuttle.

It puts a 7-day trip at about $78 to $84 at its three best-rated lots. Those figures are in US dollars, while the on-site table is in Canadian dollars.

The same One Stop Parking listing shows more park and fly lots and how each gets you to the terminal:

  • Sky Park Self Parking, 6428 Airport Rd, 1 mi: CA$11.95 a day, 24/7 on-demand shuttle.
  • Car Park Pearson, 6695 Airport Rd, 2.7 kms: CA$12.95 a day, shuttle on request at any hour.
  • Skyway Park North lot, 7855 Finch Ave W, 7 kms: CA$14.16 a day, round-the-clock shuttle on demand.
  • Hilton Garden Inn Toronto Airport, 3311 Caroga Dr, 1 km: CA$15.95 a day, 24/7 shuttle every 30 mins.
  • Park One Toronto Curbside Valet Parking, 5015 Maingate Dr, 0.1 kms: CA$24.95 a day, paid 24/7 curbside valet.

Read the transfer terms as closely as the rate. An on-demand shuttle, a timed shuttle and a paid valet each change how long the car-to-terminal leg takes.

How early should I book airport parking?

For off-airport lots, you book with the lot itself. Pearson’s off-airport parking shuttles page tells travellers to contact the parking provider directly for reservations and shuttle information.

Book well ahead for December. Prime Park says the Value Park Garage fills up first in December because it is covered.

Plan the drive as well as the booking. Prime Park recommends parking 1.5 hours before departure for domestic flights and 2.5 hours before for international flights.

Shuttle schedules add time to that plan. On One Stop Parking, The Westin Toronto Airport at 950 Dixon Road lists CA$10.95 a day with a paid shuttle every 30 min. NU Hotel at 6465 Airport Rd lists CA$11.95 a day with a 24-hour shuttle every 30 minutes.

A shuttle on a timed loop can leave just before you pull in, so leave room for one missed run. Check the operator before you travel.

How much does it cost to leave a car at Toronto airport?

Leaving a car for a long trip is where parking costs pile up. Myairportparking.ca puts a 21-day trip at approximately $136 to $189 off-airport, compared with $588 to $693 at Pearson’s Value Park.
