Whitby to and from Pearson Airport
Whitby sits just west of Oshawa along the 401 corridor, and most trips — from the Brooklin area in the north to the Port Whitby waterfront — cover about 68 kilometres between Whitby and Toronto Pearson (YYZ) in 50 to 60 minutes.
The standard route heads west on Highway 401 from the Brock Road or Thickson Road interchange. The highway passes through Ajax and Pickering, enters Toronto near the Rouge River, and continues through Scarborough and North York toward the Highway 427 exit. From there, the 427 runs straight south to the Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 departure ramps.
For pickups in northern Whitby around Brooklin or the Taunton Road area, drivers may opt for Highway 407 ETR via the 412 connector. This toll route avoids the 401 entirely and enters Pearson from the north via Highway 427 or the 409.
If you are flying into Pearson and heading home to Whitby, your driver meets you at the arrivals curb at Terminal 1 or Terminal 3 and takes the 427 north to the 401 eastbound corridor. We track your flight and adjust for delays — no rebooking needed. The flat rate is $110 CAD in either direction. Whether you are heading out from the Whitby GO Station on Victoria Street, the shops on Dundas Street, or a residential street near the lake, the fare stays the same.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is an airport taxi from Whitby to Pearson?
The flat rate from anywhere in Whitby to Pearson Airport is $110 CAD in either direction. This covers all of Whitby including Brooklin, Port Whitby, the Dundas Street corridor, and the Whitby GO Station area. HST and any 407 ETR tolls are included in the rate.
Can I get picked up from Brooklin for a Pearson transfer?
Yes. Brooklin is part of the Whitby zone at the same $110 flat rate. Drivers typically access Pearson via Highway 412 to the 407 ETR from Brooklin, which avoids the 401 entirely and keeps the drive time around 55 to 65 minutes depending on the time of day.
Is it faster to take the 407 from Whitby to Pearson?
During afternoon rush hour (3:30 PM to 7 PM weekdays), the 407 ETR via the 412 connector can save 15 to 20 minutes compared to the 401. Outside of rush hour, the 401 is usually just as fast and the driver will take whichever route has lighter traffic. The toll is included in your flat rate either way.
