Billy Bishop Toronto City Centre Airport

Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (CYTZ) sits on Toronto Island, 1 mile south of downtown Toronto. The single 3,985 ft runway restricts operations to light jets, turboprops, and short-field-capable aircraft; midsize and larger jets cannot operate here. Porter Airlines uses CYTZ as its base. Field elevation 252 ft, no density-altitude concerns. Billy Bishop's structural advantage is ground time — 5 minutes by ferry shuttle to the foot of Bay Street and the financial core. For Toronto business aviation requiring jet capability, Pearson (CYYZ) or Buttonville (CYKZ) are the alternatives. Ground time to Bay Street is 5 minutes.
