- myls t2 contributionsGood serviceBanff Airporter have a friendly, helpful and great service drivers, always on time and gives an excellent informations about the travel time, drop off location and helpful with the luggages. But small thing must be improve I didn't get an email booking reservation confirmation right away because the agent on phone call booking didn't double check my email address and I have to call back to have the confirmation. Aside from that everything is great.Visited September 2023Travelled soloWritten September 26, 2023
- DOTTIE HAMILLFrederick, Maryland46 contributionsSimply the BestThe Banff Airporter was the best! Kevin picked us up early, made sure several times that all guests were comfortable and enjoying the ride. He explained the shuttle features so that all would love the ride. We were at the Calgary Airport in 1hr 15min from the last pick up spot. He actually dropped us off at the Marriott in terminal Hotel. We will not hesitate to use this service again when we are traveling. No need to rent a car! Thanks KevinVisited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten October 1, 2023
- Angela F4 contributionsShuttle bus from Airport to BanffVery profesional, pick up and drop off either at the airport and in Banff was on time. I took the shuttle at the airport one hour before the booked time and they allowed me to change time with no problem. They send you the reiminder of the trip one day before. I was not sure how to handle the check in on the way back and I asked for an information to a driver that was waiting to leave and he gave me all the details of my trip even if it was 2 days after.Visited September 2023Travelled on businessWritten October 1, 2023

- Ally B71 contributionsGreat serviceGood communication in advance, arrived on time and dropped off right at the door of both domestic and international terminals. Much cheaper than a taxi but probably more comfortable to be honest! Will pick up from Canmore as well which is where we were staying.

The driver Andrew was very pleasant and professional. The interior of the shuttle was spotless and pristine. I enjoyed the quietness of the bus ride (no music or commentary) as we left Banff for Calgary Airport, which allowed me to soak up the last of the rockies in peace. Despite the quietness that I enjoyed, the driver was friendly and bubbly with each person he picked up.Visited October 2023Travelled soloWritten October 9, 2023

In fact, they called us when we were delayed to be sure they could book us on the next available shuttle.

We used Banff Airporter when we arrived in Calgary to take us to Banff and on the return journey as well. They were a short walk just outside the International arrivals baggage claim so they were easy to find. They loaded our bags for us and all we had to do was sit back and enjoy the ride. Bus was comfortable and clean and dropped us off right at our hotel. Same for the return to Calgary a week later. Chantel was our driver and was very friendly and helpful with loading the bags for us. She had us back at the airport in plenty of time for our flight. I would definately recommend using The Banff Airporter, everything from reservations to drop off went as smooth as possible! Thank u!

Great, friendly, courteous and timely service. The driver from Banff to Calgary airport (Tyler) was pleasant and just wanted to ensure the passengers were comfortable, safe and on time. No social distancing but everyone was double vaccinated.
The staff (sorry can’t remember their names) when you call, text or email were very responsive. They were thoughtful enough to check before our arrival to see if we needed a car or booster seat since they saw I had booked for one child (6-16 yrs old), something I totally forgot.
We needed to make a last minute change to return to Calgary 3 days earlier. We called around 5 pm to get a return for the next morning, and they responded quickly to advise us what was available, and we were booked for 7 am the next morning.
I would use them again and would highly recommend them.

Hi Spideydad,
Thank you very much for your review. It's great to hear that your travels worked out. Your review gives a great shout out to our reservations staff for catching the car seat requirement and also making a last-minute change to your booking. It's really great to read about that as so often everything is about the driver. Thank you for the 5 stars and for the recommendation. Let's hope you're back to Banff again soon!

We booked the Banff Airporter service before we left the UK for our wedding & honeymoon in Canada. It was our first time in Canada so we had no idea what to expect. At Calgary airport the Airporter desk is easy to find and the buses run regularly and on time. Our driver, Chantel, was delightful and friendly which is exactly what’s needed after a long haul flight. Upon our return to Calgary after the wedding Chantel was once again our driver. She immediately recognised us and congratulated us on our marriage. This made the whole transportation experience so enjoyable. I would highly recommend the Banff Airporter Service to anyone planning their visit to Banff.

I was still zipping up my suitcase inside when the bus arrived, and the driver came in to get me and even wheeled my luggage to the bus for me. Not only was he patient and helpful, he was also very friendly... kept asking if the temperature was alright and even pointed out the beautiful sunset on one side of the vehicle, in case the passengers didn't notice. Also the seats were comfortable and the windows were spotless, making for fantastic photos of the mountains along the drive! I highly recommend Banff Airporter as a shuttle between Calgary and Banff and will definitely book with them again next time I visit.

Had a very smooth journey from Banff to Calgary Airport today. Chantel is a good driver and was very professional, she dealt with a rude customer in a smart and friendly way, kept the good vibes up in the bus and it also helps that she looks like Lara Croft. 5 star.

This company understands customer service. We had to make various cancellations and changes due to flight changes and the staff were excellent, friendly and helpful making the changes immediately without unnecessary hassles. They promptly refunded the cancelled portions with a full refund. I would highly recommend this company. World class!

Great service, big clean vans, prompt service and for winter time snow tires with studs made me feel safe on the roads.
Our driver was an excellent, cautious driver.

Hi davesK4842WQ,
It's funny you bring up our studded tires. We've been using the same tires for over 10 years. They just cancelled the size we use...arg. We're busy trying to find a new tire that's up to the task. Don't worry, we'll be ready for next winter.

The ladies at the counter in the airport were very nice and friendly. The young man who drove us to Canmore was very polite and drove very smoothly and safely. While it didn't really make much difference to us as we were on holiday and flexible as to time, we stayed on the posted schedule.
The return trip to the airport was also on time with the young lady driver giving us good information as we prepared to leave about how the transport bus would go first to the domestic flights terminal and then to international. Return trip was also smooth and safe ride. The bus is clean and has great reclining seats and power outlets for charging. Nice touch. So all around good experience.

My kids travel quite a lot on their own and the easiest part of their travel experience is always the Banff Airporter. The drivers are amazing and intuitive. They treat the kids like they are precious and it helps us all have the best possible beginning or ending to the trip. Starting the trip our relaxed sets the kids up to deal with whatever airline challenges lie ahead. Thanks Banff Airporter, you really go above and beyond.

We used the shuttle to get to and from Banff. Our arrival time at the airport in Calgary was much earlier than we planned so we called to see if we could get an earlier shuttle. We were able to get on at the last minute, thanks to Mark.
Both trips were easy in a comfortable shuttle. Everyone was required to wear masks inside the shuttle.
Drivers were excellent and timely. They run a great shuttle system. I would not hesitate to use them again when I return to Canada!

How much time should you allow upon arrival into Calgary before booking the shuttle to Banff? To retrieve luggage, etc.
Flight arrives 134pm. Can I book 230pm or is 330pm a safer choice?
Thanks
Written August 18, 2017
Go for the later shuttle. The Airporter desk is in the old domestic terminal, about an easy 10 minute walk from the new international one, so you need to factor that in too. If you get there in time for the earlier bus, they will put you aboard as long as they have space. On checking in luggage at the desk for the later departure, you can go off and get a coffee etc, as long as you are back 10 mins before departure.

hello. do I have to pre-book the coach tickets?
Written April 21, 2017
HI Ho M,
Out of Banff, you need to have a reservation. From Calgary, you can walk up, but it's best to pre-book to make sure you have a seat. Let me know if I can help you with anything else.

You arrive at the airport in Calgary, take the shuttle to Banff, and arrive at your hotel. At what point do you purchase the park permit?
Written April 29, 2016
For Banff Aspen Lodge, the parking was free. If you are worried about a permit to park at the hotel you are staying at, I would check with the hotel to see if it is required.
