Travel Essentials
CUN: EST · YYZ: EDT
When it's 6:00 PM in Cancún, it's 7:00 PM in Toronto.
Mexican passport holders flying to Canada can apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) if they hold a valid US non-immigrant visa or have held a Canadian visa in the past 10 years. The eTA costs CAD 7 and is processed within minutes. It covers air travel only.
If you don't meet those conditions, you need a Canadian visitor visa instead. Approved visitor visas are typically multiple-entry, valid for up to 10 years. The eTA does not apply to land or sea crossings. Those require a visitor visa regardless.
ADO buses run from downtown Cancún bus terminal to the airport for MXN 102 (about USD $5) in 20–25 minutes. The Tren Maya (Maya Train) opened a station at CUN Airport (Terminal 4), connecting to the broader Yucatán rail network. Taxis from the Hotel Zone (Zona Hotelera) cost MXN 350–550 (USD $17–28) depending on the zone.Authorized taxis from the airport are sold by ticket inside the terminal; agree on the fare before leaving the building to avoid inflated street prices. Uber is blocked from airport pick-ups by local taxi concessions; use the authorised taxi stand. Car rental is available at all four terminals.
UP Express from T1 to Union Station runs every 15 minutes (25 min, CAD $12.35). The station is inside T1; take the LINK train from T3 arrivals first (free, 3 min). Taxis to downtown use a meter; expect CAD $55–75.Ride-hail (Uber, Lyft) picks up at the designated Ground Transportation area; follow signs. TTC buses run to the Kipling and Bloor–Yonge subway stations (CAD $3.30) for a longer but cheaper option. Car rental agencies are at T1 and accessible from T3 via the LINK train.
Humid continental climate. Winters are harsh (−10 to −1°C, December–March) with significant snowfall. Pearson closes runways for plowing and de-icing regularly, causing wave delays. Ice storms (freezing rain) are more disruptive than snowfall and can halt operations for hours. Buffalo-effect lake-effect snow can bring heavy accumulations with little warning.
Summers are warm and humid (22–30°C) with afternoon thunderstorms that delay departures July–August. Spring and fall are pleasant but unpredictable. YYZ connections in winter require significant schedule buffer. It is Canada's most weather-disrupted major hub.
