Official airport tariff guide

Pearson taxi tariffs, without mixing them with the Toronto meter.

Pearson airport taxis use GTAA flat tariffs. TaxiRates keeps those airport fares separate from Toronto's City-regulated street meter and stores published out-of-town tariffs as versioned rate data.

How Pearson taxi pricing works

Pearson says its licensed airport taxis use flat rates with no surge pricing. Taxes are included in the published tariff.

Named out-of-town tariffs

Published Pearson fares in the live database.

These include official named out-of-town destinations plus exact high-use GTA landmarks tied to verified GTAA tariff-map cells. The full road-boundary map remains a separate module.

The complete published out-of-town list remains in SQL. V10.3 expands exact GTA landmark coverage without applying broad city-level aliases.

Expanded verified GTA coverage

More high-use Pearson destinations now resolve directly.

V10.3 expands exact landmark coverage inside tariff cells already identified from the official GTAA map. It still does not treat an entire city, neighbourhood or all of downtown as one fare.

V10.3 adds exact addresses and landmarks only. A random street address outside these verified cells will still show the official-map safeguard.

Toronto and GTA tariff map

Toronto/GTA airport fares come from a road-boundary map.

Pearson's official tariff map divides Toronto and surrounding municipalities using roads and municipal boundaries. V10.3 resolves a larger verified set of exact high-use destinations, while arbitrary unmatched GTA addresses still fall back to the official map lookup rather than a guessed fare.

Why we do not fall back to the Toronto meter

A Pearson departure is an airport-tariff trip. Substituting the City of Toronto street meter would produce the wrong pricing model even if the destination is downtown Toronto.
