Getting from Edmonton International Airport to the Lister Centre

There are several ways to get from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Lister Centre

• 1. Take the Skyshuttle. This is a privately operated shuttle, servicing major hotels in the university and downtown area, and in particular Lister Hall. The one way fare is $18 ($30 for round trip). The check-in desk area at the Edmonton International Airport is located near Door 7 on the Arrivals Level. Note that you must pre-book any travel to the aiport by phone or online (but not from the airport). Travel times vary, but you should allow for at least 45 minutes. Please make sure to obtain a receipt for your expenses.

  2. Take a taxi. Fares vary, but should be around $60 one way plus tip. Travel time is around 30 - 40 minutes depending on traffic. Please make sure you obtain a receipt for your expenses.

  3. Take public transit. The 747 bus line runs hourly (half-hourly during peak times) for most of the day in either direction, connecting YEG to the southern most LRT station (Century Park). Click here for its schedule. Once at Century Park, take the LRT to the Health Sciences station and then walk north to 87 Avenue and two blocks West. You can find a local map here.

  4. One way fares on the 747 are $5 (must be paid in cash or with two bus tickets, no change), plus currently $3.25 for the LRT ticket (which must be purchased with cash at ticketing machines at Century Park, which accept bills up to $20 and provide change). This is a cheap and viable option if you don't have a lot of luggage to carry around. Travel times vary, but it takes approximately 30 minutes to Century Park, and about 20 minutes from there to the Health Sciences LRT station. Depending on the time of day, LRT trains at Century Park run on a 7 to 15 minutes schedule. Please see takeets.com for details.

  5. Unfortunately, we won't be able to reimburse you for the local transit option.
