Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 20, 2025
Taxis

Taxi services are readily available at the airport, typically waiting outside the terminal to meet arriving flights. The primary provider is Taxi Coop Saguenay. While taxis are usually on-site, pre-booking is recommended, especially for late-night or early-morning travel.

Rental Cars

Several major car rental companies have service counters located directly inside the airport terminal. Options include Avis, Budget, Enterprise, and National. Reserving a vehicle in advance is highly recommended to ensure availability, particularly during peak tourist seasons.

Public Transportation

There is no direct public transit bus service (operated by Société de transport du Saguenay - STS) to the Saguenay-Bagotville Airport. To connect with the local bus network, travelers must take a taxi from the airport to the nearest bus terminal in the boroughs of Chicoutimi or La Baie.

General Aviation not welcome there Posted by on September 10, 2016

The National Defence ask 14$ landing fees and Promotion Saguenay ask another 16$. An additionnal 25$ fees per passenger was requested and 35$ for daytime parking. Considering that I had 3 passengers on that day, the journey costed me 140$, which is very expensive in comparison to similar airport size.

Arrester cables at CYBG Posted by philippe on June 11, 2011

Watch out for arrester cables about 1500 from the tresholds, used for fighter jets. Even when they are lowered they are not something you want to roll over at high speed, especially with light GA aircraft. There are orange markers on each side of the runway at the cable positions.

There is a 20$ passenger fee but the terminal has free wifi and a reasonably cheap restaurant.

Permission required Posted by david on July 19, 2007

I came in here in 2005 for a Hope Air flight. There is a civilian terminal, but because it's a military airport, you need prior permission to land. I called the operations and got a special authorization code to provide on first contact with ATC (they never asked for it, because they were expecting me).

Chicoutimi airport is nearby for regular civilian traffic, along with several other, smaller airports in the Saguenay/Lac-St-Jean area.
