another great airside tour earnest! it must be a real nice experience to see some of these airliners up close. the tour guide seemed informative and pleseant and everybody seemed to enjoy themselves! this is a great opportunity to find out about the daily operations of Toronto pearson int. airport. rob
omg I would so much want to do that......it must have given you a buzz on a tour like that. I think the tour is only for Canadians and not tourists so I won't be able to go on that tour :(-
Anyone regardless of nationality can come on the tour. All you need is a passport as an ID. Though it fills up very quickly so you need to book it months in advance.
I know this is an old video, BUT my dad knows the tour guide (ross) and the Driver (Doug). My dad worked in the tower (apron controller) at pearson. I did the tour back in 2014 and it was alot like this video (except I got to go into the fire station ;) )
I wouldn't say old, its still taken this year haha. Yeah, I know the tour guide too, his name is Russ actually, been working at Pearson for a while. I've run into Doug a few times too. Oh nice! Yeah, that's one place I still have to go to is the Apron Tower, I've already been in the main tower. And yes, this tour was the first one I've been on where the fire hall was avoided so we did the de-icing stuff instead.
Cool, Doug was my dads supervisor (i think) in the tower. I've seen pictures of inside the apron tower, it's pretty cool. My dad was the one who actually took me to pearson when i was 3 and got me into spotting/planes etc. He knew all the service roads etc so i got the up front experience.

Thanks Rob! Sure is! For people interested in Pearson, this is a fantastic opportunity for them.
Amazing video! - I must say watching the KLM 744 parking close up on T3 really made my day!
Thanks! Same, it was probably one of the biggest highlights of the tour.
Lucky you!! That KLM 744 was breathtakingly filmed. Question: where exactly is the "bird's nest" for RWY 23?
Thanks! Hate that name lol, I'd rather call it the Parking Garage. It's just up the road from the Petro Canada.
nice footage of that a380 also nice footage of that 747
Thanks for posting this, I had no idea this tour existed! I'm signing up for it soon!
Thanks a lot! :) Go for it!
Wow, that's one epic experience you've got there!
Definitely man! ;) thanks for watching!
Super cool, I wish we could have this more in the US. Great job!
Thanks! Yeah, I heard plane spotting isn't always easy there.
This is a great video!! I have a quick question. Would you recommend the time 5-7pm or 6-8pm? Would the Emirates still be parked for the 5-7pm tour?
Thanks a lot! Both times work. And yes, 5-7pm Emirates would still be there.
Toronto Pearson Aviation- Hornet Videos 2017 thanks
Awesome Video Ernest, That A380 wow! I was going on the trip during this July but I'm going to Seattle, Another year missed. :(
Thanks! Oh, that sucks. However, Seattle is always promising ;)
I'm really excited to attend the airside tour on Monday Aug28th
Enjoy it! :)
Awesome video mate!
Thanks Jelmer!
