Booking & logistics
How do boarding families book an airport transfer to Lakefield College School?
Answered by the Toronto Airport Limo team · Last reviewed July 6, 2026
Families book the Lakefield College School transfer online from anywhere: flight number, the school's address in Lakefield, card payment, done. The village sits north of Peterborough — the Peterborough line itself prices at $410.26 all-in by sedan from Pearson, with Lakefield about twenty minutes further on and quoted exactly from its own address at /ride/. Add the $65 meet & greet and the chauffeur meets your child inside Pearson arrivals with a name sign, timed to the actual landing.
Where Lakefield actually is — and why the quote is address-exact
Lakefield College School sits at the edge of the village of Lakefield, on the water north of Peterborough — proper Kawartha country, past where the city's streets give way to lake roads. From Pearson, the chauffeur crosses the GTA, runs Highway 115 northeast to Peterborough, then continues north to the village; think of it as the Peterborough trip plus roughly twenty more minutes.
Because of that extra leg, the school's fare is not the Peterborough number. The city line prices at $410.26 all-in by sedan from the airport, and Lakefield quotes somewhat above it — enter the school's own address at /ride/ and the exact total appears before you book. No estimating, no surprises on arrival.
- Village of Lakefield, north of Peterborough on the water
- Route: GTA crossing → Highway 115 → through Peterborough → north
- Peterborough anchor fare: $410.26 sedan; Lakefield quoted from its own address
The remote-booking sequence for parents abroad
Lakefield draws boarders from far beyond Ontario, so assume the booking is happening from another time zone and it works exactly as you would hope. Reserve at /ride/ with the arrival flight number and the school as the drop-off; pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay (charged once the ride is confirmed); and list your own email and phone so the confirmation, the editable self-serve link and the pre-pickup SMS all land with you.
Two practical notes from how these trips actually run. First, book the moment flights are ticketed — term dates concentrate travel, and while online booking technically needs only 3 hours of lead, this is not a route to leave to the last evening. Second, the booking stays changeable up to 12 hours before pickup through the emailed link, so a rebooked connection is a two-minute fix, not a crisis.
- Everything — booking, payment, confirmations — works from abroad
- Charged only once the ride is confirmed; cash on the day also possible
- Changes via the email link until 12 hours out; then phone
Meeting a young traveller off a long-haul flight
The recommended setup for a student flying alone is the $65 meet & greet: instead of a curbside connection, the chauffeur stands inside the Pearson arrivals hall with the student's name on a sign, and the handoff happens the moment they clear customs. Combined with flight tracking — the pickup follows the true landing time, however delayed — it removes both of the moments parents worry about.
Where the airline or the school has its own procedures for unaccompanied students, those stay in the family's hands; give us the drop-off instructions the school expects and the chauffeur carries them out. Our part is the constant: a tracked flight, a named sign, a warm car and a direct drive north.
- $65 meet & greet — the name sign inside arrivals
- Pickup timing follows the aircraft, not the booking clock
- School-side arrival procedures: yours to set, ours to follow
Trunks, duffels and the September load
A boarder's September load is rarely sedan-sized: a trunk or two, duffels, sports equipment, winter kit for a Canadian school year. The sedan handles up to three passengers with ordinary luggage; step up to the SUV when the cargo is real — on the Peterborough line it prices at $565.82, and Lakefield again quotes exactly from the address. Tell us what is travelling and we will size the vehicle honestly rather than cramming.
December and March travel days reverse the flow, and cars collect from the school for Pearson departures at whatever hour the flight demands — the service runs around the clock, and the airport-bound direction prices a little lower since drop-offs carry no airport fee. Families running the same legs every term often simply repeat the booking each travel day, same vehicle, same instructions.
- Sedan: up to 3 with standard luggage
- SUV for trunk-and-duffel loads — $565.82 on the Peterborough line
- Early-morning departure collections are routine; 24/7 service

Related questions
How much is the airport transfer to Lakefield College School?
Quote the school's address at /ride/ for the exact all-in figure. As an anchor, the Peterborough line — the city just south of the village — prices at $410.26 by sedan from Pearson, and Lakefield's extra distance takes its quote somewhat above that. The number you see includes gratuity and HST.
Can the chauffeur meet my daughter inside the terminal?
Yes — that is the meet & greet option, $65 on any airport pickup. The chauffeur waits inside the arrivals hall holding a sign with her name, then walks her to the car. Her flight is tracked from the moment it takes off, so the sign is there whether she lands early, on time or hours late.
We are booking from Hong Kong — how do confirmations reach us?
Put your own email and mobile number on the booking. The confirmation email (with the self-serve link for changes) and the SMS updates go to whatever contacts you list, wherever they are — many families list both a parent abroad and the student's Canadian number.
How long is the drive from Pearson to Lakefield?
The Peterborough leg runs about an hour and a half to two hours depending on GTA traffic, and the village is roughly another twenty minutes north. Your chauffeur times the whole journey off the tracked landing, so the drive begins when your child is actually in the car, rested or not.
