Cell Phone Lot

This free, dedicated parking area is available to drivers who are picking up passengers. Drivers wait in the comfort of their vehicle until the passenger arrives and sends them a mobile message.

Passengers should be outside waiting along the arrivals curb before the driver proceeds to the terminal. It takes 30-60 seconds for the driver to drive from the Cell Phone Lot to the arrivals curb.

The driver must stay in their vehicle at all times; unattended vehicles will be ticketed and towed at the owner's expense.

Commercial or ridesharing vehicles are not permitted to use this lot.

To access the lot, turn onto Air Cargo Private from Airport Parkway (at the light).

Idling is prohibited while parked in this lot, except during certain weather conditions. City of Ottawa By-law 2007-266
