Route and fare planning

Why should you treat the train arrival, border, and DTW flight as one connection?

A workable pickup begins when the passenger can leave the platform with luggage. It then accounts for station access, U.S. inspection, the airport drive, the correct departure terminal, and the traveller's selected airline check-in margin.

  • Windsor station pickup
  • Southbound border
  • DTW terminal drop-off
  1. Pickup

    Send the train and flight details

    Provide the VIA train number, scheduled arrival, airline, flight number, DTW departure, passengers, luggage, and a reachable mobile number.

  2. On the way

    Confirm the station and border handoff

    Use the pickup instructions confirmed for 298 Walker Road, Windsor, Ontario. Dispatch reviews the crossing for the actual passenger-ready time rather than the timetable alone.

  3. Arrival

    Arrive at the correct DTW terminal

    The drop-off plan uses the current airline assignment at McNamara or Evans Terminal. Passengers should independently verify airline, identification, baggage, security, and boarding requirements.
