Wondering how to get to Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (YQB)? We’ve got you! Here’s a guide of your options for getting to and from YQB.
1. Ask someone you know
Ask someone to drop you off or drive you home. It’s a simple, hassle-free option. If you’re being picked up, the driver will be able to use CellPARQ, our free waiting area for vehicles, for up to 60 minutes. CellPARQ is accessible from Principale Street and is located before the parking lot entrance, facing 7e rue de l’Aéroport.
There are also spaces for immediate pick-up or drop-off right in front of the terminal. If you’re being picked up, simply inform your companion when you’re ready and tell them the number on the column closest to you.

YQB has two parking areas near the terminal: an outdoor parking lot and a parking garage. You can check the rates and even prepay for your parking on our website.
Econo parking
The outdoor parking lot is the most cost-effective option. Once you park, you can get to the terminal by following the pedestrian walkway.
24 hours a day, 7 days a week, until April 30, 2025, a free shuttle bus will run between the terminal and P3 and P4 zones of the Econo parking lot. Once there, you'll be able to easily identify one of the three bus shelters. Depending on the number of users, the shuttle will run approximately every 15 minutes.
Take advantage of outdoor parking starting at only $70 for 7 days.
Proxi Parking
After parking in the garage, you can get to the terminal directly using the footbridge on the second floor. The walk should only take 2–7 minutes. Four charging stations are available on level 1 of the parking garage.
Save big by prepaying for your parking in the garage!
Now you have one less thing to worry about as you prepare for your trip!
