Taxis are readily available directly outside the arrivals exit of the terminal building. Services are metered, and vehicles are typically waiting to meet all arriving flights. Both cash and major credit cards are accepted.

Rental Cars

Car rental counters for several major companies, including Avis, Budget, Enterprise, National, and Hertz, are located inside the air terminal building in the arrivals hall. It is strongly recommended to reserve a vehicle in advance, especially during the peak summer season. The rental car pickup lot is located just across from the terminal.

Good place to visit Posted by david on August 7, 2010

I flew in to PEI for four nights. As advertised, parking was free, with cables to tie down. The school is open 8-8, but they can provide a code to give you after-hours airside access. Fuel was not self-serve, and the instructors are often up flying with students, so fill up when you land if there's someone there -- it's not really an FBO (though the staff are friendly), but just a flying school that sells gas and gives away free parking. There was no multiweight oil available (just mineral oil -- apparently, that's all the school uses in its planes).

For Americans, note that this is a Mandatory Frequency (MF) airport, something that doesn't exist in the US. There's an FSS rather than a tower on the field, but you're still required to talk to it (though it doesn't issue clearances like a tower would).

FBO information Posted by david on July 28, 2010

177 BRACKLEY PT RD, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island C1A 6Y9‎ - (902) 892-7983‎

Information by phone, 2010-07-28: Parking is free. AvGas is available from 8 am to 5 pm local time (otherwise, there's a callout charge): there's a chance that everyone will be up flying with students, so it might be necessary to wait for service. Park at the tie-down cable, using the painted lines to find the spots.

re: Rockcliffe Flying Club visit, 25-27 August 2007 Posted by david on August 27, 2007

Unfortunately, the big low-pressure system canceled the trip, especially since most of the pilots were VFR-only.

Rockcliffe Flying Club visit, 25-27 August 2007 Posted by david on August 13, 2007

The Rockcliffe Flying Club from Ottawa to PEI on the weekend of 25-27 August 2007. I expect that everyone will be planning to land here at YYG.

Taxi Posted by david on August 13, 2007

The airport is a short taxi ride north of downtown Charlottetown -- it's been a few years, but I don't remember it being too expensive.
