Coach Buses
There is frequent coach bus service to Toronto, Ottawa, and beyond. Ticket prices can be variable, but are usually reasonable. For the cheapest deals, try to book ahead of time. There are two main coach bus operators in Kingston:
- Megabus: The main station is located at 1175 John Counter Blvd, which is connected to the Kingston Transit bus network. There is also a Megabus stop in front of Goodes Hall, if you book a ticket to Mississauga, Yorkdale, or the Toronto Pearson Airport.
- Flixbus: The curbside bus stop is located at 275 Wellington St. in downtown Kingston.
The Tricolour Express, operated by the Alma Mater Society, also offers bus tickets to Toronto on specific dates throughout the academic year. However, at $50-55 per one-way ticket, it may not be your cheapest option. For more information, see the link here: Queen's University Tricolour Express - Tricolour Outlet.
Train
There is frequent Via Rail service from Kingston to Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal. The train station is located at 1800 John Counter Blvd, and can be accessed by Kingston Transit routes 7, 16, and 18. Although typically more expensive than the bus, you can find cheaper fares by booking well in advance of your trip. There is a discount offered to OMA members.
