Flying from Toronto to Belgium via Billy Bishop airport

Does anyone have any good locations for long term parking near Billy Bishop in Toronto? We are going
to Belgium for two weeks. It appears that all of the long term parking is near Pearson Airport.

Thanks, Alan

Huh Toronto is my place to fly from and I didn't even know you could fly to Europe from that airport. Does the flight stop somewhere?

Here we locals call it the Island Airport and I thought the residents had succeeded in keeping the aircraft that fly out if it to the small ones.

What airline are you flying. Im surprised you are flying to Europe from the island. You will not have lots of parking options. Anything near the airport will be expensive.

Where are you coming from exactly? No chance of leaving the car at home and taking public transit in?

In worst case, you can park near Pearson and take the 20 minute or so transit into town where you can access Billy Bishop airport via Union Station (you'd have to Google how long the walk would take but it doesn't seem that far on a map).

Porter has alliances with seven other airlines winch fly to major destinations around the world with connections in Boston, Newark, and Dulles. So it's completely plausible that one can fly to Europe from Bishop:

We use a parking garage on Lower Simcoe just off Queens Quay all the time for ACC and Rogers Centre events and many use it for Billy Bishop. Best deal ( used tone but secret) in town!

Add me to the list of people who was surprised that you could get to Europe from he Island Airport

Sorry for the confusion. Our flight out of Toronto island is just the first leg. We fly from TI to Montreal and then Montreal to Brussels.
