Yellowknife Airport Transportation
Taxis
A common misconception regarding Yellowknife is that it does not have any taxis. An abundance of taxis and two different companies are available in the area. Aurora Taxi and City Cabs are two agencies that are providing their taxi services locally.
Taxi cars are always waiting from the left side outside of the terminal exit doors. In case passengers cross the road, this means they have gone too far and missed it.
There are always enough taxi cabs available for each traveler, so there is no need to rush.
A typical taxi ride into Yellowknife costs about $15-20 and takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the final destination of riders.
Taxis operate for 24 hours, so regardless of passenger’s arrival time-delayed or not – there are always taxis available.

Car Rentals If passengers rented a car, the first thing they need to do is go to the rental booth of the company they made the booking with (Budget, National, etc.). Counters are very easy to find. If commuters walk in the doors off of the tarmac from the plane and keep going straight towards the exit door of the terminal building, the rental car booths are conveniently located just to the right of that door. Budget The budget counter can be found inside the airport terminal near the baggage claim area. All the cars are parked outside the building within walking distance. Commuters can follow signs when returning a vehicle. The car can be parked in any Budget space and keys, as well as the contract, returned to the rental desk for check-in. After-hours return is available at the agency. After parking and locking a car, the completed contract and the keys should be placed in the key dropbox. At Yellowknife Airport, the minimum age is 25 for all
