How to Get from Toronto to Niagara Falls in 12 Minutes

Toronto to Niagara Falls in 12 minutes? It sounds like the stuff of urban legend.

Commuters looking to skip the 90-minute (and then some) drive between the two destinations will soon have a new option at their disposal.

Greater Toronto Airways, a company which primarily offers charters services and flightseeing tours out of Billy Bishop Airport has announced that it will start daily flights to the Niagara District Airport in Niagara-on-the-Lake, according to a report at CBC.

The flight, which the company execs are targeting towards commuters, will operate daily, with an 8:30 a.m. departure from Toronto and a 4:30 p.m. return.

According to the company website, Greater Toronto Airways will use an eight-seat Piper Navajo Chieftain aircraft. Rates will start from C$ 85 one way and C$ 159 roundtrip. The flights will commence September 15, 2016.

The company already offers a five-hour flightseeing tour of Toronto and Niagara Falls, including a stop at a local winery, starting from C$ 249.
