Regina (YQR): route 24, Airport to Downtown
A stop called Airport sits near the terminal. Route 24 runs Airport to Downtown, 05:55 to 00:30, about 220 scheduled calls.
- The stop is simply called Airport, about 820 metres from the runway reference point.
- Route 24, AIRPORT - DOWNTOWN, is the service, about 220 scheduled calls.
- It runs 05:55 to 00:30, an unusually wide window for a city this size.
- The headsigns are AIRPORT and DOWNTOWN, so the direction is unambiguous.
- Downtown Regina is about 5 km north-east, which is very close.
- Two more stops sit nearby: Airport Road at Buffalo Trail and Chipmunk Drive at Airport Road.
- Regina is the capital of Saskatchewan, and this is the province's second airport after Saskatoon.
- The early start and late finish cover almost the whole flight schedule.
Route 24
- The City of Regina runs the transit network and publishes its own data.
- The airport stop is named Airport, about 820 metres from the runway reference point.
- Route 24, AIRPORT - DOWNTOWN, has about 220 scheduled calls and runs 05:55 to 00:30.
- That window is genuinely useful. Very few Canadian cities of Regina's size run an airport bus past midnight.
The other stops
- Airport Rd at Buffalo Trail (northbound), about 1.06 km.
- Chipmunk Dr at Airport Rd (northbound), about 1.3 km.
- Those serve the surrounding residential area rather than the terminal.
Orientation
- Downtown Regina is about 5 km north-east of the airport.
- The Legislative Building and Wascana Centre are the city's landmarks, on the lake south of downtown.
- The RCMP Heritage Centre is beside the airport, at the Mounted Police training academy.
Practical notes
- Fares are the standard Regina Transit fare. There is no airport premium.
- Taxis wait at the terminal, and given the short distance they are not expensive.
