GETTING AROUND IN THE CITY:

Flying into Toronto, look for Lester B. Pearson International Airport, Code YYZ.

Downtown Toronto and the main festival location are approximately 20 minutes drive from the airport in light traffic, or up to 45 minutes. A cab ride from the airport will usually run $40 or so, and can be negotiated ahead of time.

Transit in the city of Toronto is called THE TTC, and is comprised of buses, streetcars, and subways. You can find information on the TTC at http://www.toronto.ca/ttc/, and information on TTC service to-and-from the airport at http://www.toronto.ca/ttc/service_to_airport.htm.
