Arriving without a car

Not renting? Here's who St. John's International Airport Authority lists at the terminal.

Rideshare: it depends who you ask.

The Airport Authority's own ground-transportation pages name City Wide Taxi as “the exclusive provider of ground transportation services for the public” and do not mention rideshare anywhere. Uber publishes pickup instructions for YYT, and the Airport's own account welcomed Uber in 2024. Both are true. The Authority's pages govern the kerb, so check them on the day.

  • Taxi

    City Wide Taxi, which the Airport Authority names as the exclusive provider for the public. Cabs queue outside the Arrivals area and a dispatcher is there to help. The Authority publishes preset fares to named hotels and a meter-plus-surcharge rate everywhere else.

    (709) 722-7777

  • Public transit

    Metrobus route 14 runs between the airport and the St. John's metro region, including Memorial University. There are two stops at the airport: one near the arrivals area, and one on World Parkway by the Holiday Inn Express. The Authority says Metrobus has committed to a wheelchair-accessible service on this route and can take large, non-folding mobility aids. Schedule and fares are Metrobus's.

Flown, on the record

No pilot has sent a log that touches this strip. A GPS log from the panel or the tablet, both ends within 3 km of a mapped aerodrome, is the proof — how to send it.

Help build this page

  • Tag it. Surface, length, lighting and fuel are OpenStreetMap tags on the runway and the aerodrome; most strips here carry none.
  • Send the log of a leg flown into or out of it, and a photo of the approach or the apron under the licence sentence on the contribute page.
  • Host a community mesh node. An open, volunteer-run radio mesh across the island's strips starts with the first node. It sits beside VHF, the ELT and NAV CANADA's products, never instead of them: the ask.
