2. Public Transit (Halifax Transit)

For extreme budget travelers, Halifax Transit offers bus connections from the airport to eastern HRM:

Take Route 320 (MetroX) from Halifax Stanfield Airport to Downtown Halifax ($4.25 fare).
Transfer to Route 370 (MetroX) heading toward the Porters Lake Park & Ride ($4.25 fare).

Total Fare: ~$8.50
Total Time: 2 to 3 hours (depending on layovers and time of day)
Drawbacks: Buses run on restricted schedules, do not offer luggage storage, and leave you at the local Park & Ride rather than your final address.

3. Airport Car Rentals

Car rentals are available at the YHZ terminal building. While convenient for long stays, rental rates quickly add up once you factor in mandatory insurance, gas prices, and local parking considerations. For short stays or direct transfers, flat-rate taxis remain significantly more cost-effective.
