Getting to & from the Airport

There are 4 primary ways to get to and from the Halifax Stanfield International Airport from public transportation to car rentals!

1. Public Transportation

The MetroX bus service is $4.25 (exact change required) one way.

The bus will pick visitors up at the Halifax Stanfield airport and has 3 drop off and pick up locations: Fall River, Downtown Dartmouth and Downtown Halifax.

2. Airport Shuttle Service

The Halifax Airport Shuttle service is $22 one way and $40 return (accepts Visa and MasterCard only).

Valid ID is required when boarding the Airport Express.

3. Car Rental

Car rentals are available at the Halifax Stanfield airport and are conveniently located in the Lower Level of the Airport Parkade.

Rental companies available include Alamo/National, Avis, Budget, Dollar/Thrifty, Enterprise and Hertz.

4. Taxi

Taxis and limos are available on site. For a fixed rate, we recommend the grab-and-go option by asking for a taxi from the Ground Transportation booth in arrivals. Rates will depend on the drop-off location starting at $64 for downtown Halifax (most taxi companies take credit, debit, and cash).
