Airport pickup at Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International
Give the desk your flight number. The member operator in Ottawa tracks the flight, positions the chauffeur for the actual arrival and waits with a name board — inside the arrivals hall where YOW allows meet-and-greet, or at a named curbside point confirmed on the booking where it does not. You receive the chauffeur’s name, mobile number and the vehicle plate before you land, and the fare is the one on your confirmation.
Departures from YOW
For a departure the desk builds the pickup time from your airline’s check-in window, the traffic pattern for that hour in Ottawa and an honest margin. Terminal, airline and flight number go on the confirmation so the chauffeur drops you at the right door.
Checking YOW before you travel
Terminal allocations, forecourt rules and construction detours change more often than most travellers expect, and they decide where a chauffeur is allowed to wait. The airport’s own site is the authority on all three: Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier Airport official website. The desk re-checks it the day before every pickup, so if your terminal moves overnight the chauffeur knows before you do.

Questions about YOW airport chauffeur service
Can I book a chauffeur service to and from Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier Airport?
Yes, in both directions and on the same reservation if you want it. An arrival is timed to the flight and met inside the hall; a departure is timed backwards from your airline’s check-in cut-off, the traffic pattern for that hour in Ottawa and an honest margin. Each leg is quoted as its own fixed fare.
Where does the chauffeur meet me at YOW?
In the arrivals hall with a name board where Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International permits meet-and-greet; otherwise at a named pickup point confirmed on your booking. The pre-arrival message carries the chauffeur’s name and mobile number.
How long will the chauffeur wait at YOW?
Sixty minutes on international arrivals and thirty on domestic, counted from the actual landing — the flight is tracked, so a delay does not use up the allowance.
Is the fare from YOW to Ottawa fixed?
Yes. It is quoted in writing before you book, includes tolls, parking and airport fees, and does not change with traffic or demand.
Which vehicles are available at YOW?
Executive and luxury sedans, executive SUVs and Sprinters as standard; stretch limousines, mini coaches and motorcoaches for groups; wheelchair-accessible vehicles on request. The exact make is confirmed on the reservation.
