Part of why I don't use the Toronto UP link is:
- I didn't know it was completed and operating.
- Bulk of residential population is 30-45min+ subway ride from Union Station anyway, might have assumed people travel from their offices.
- If due to a subway delay I miss a flight because I only paid $15 and wanted to save $30, the savings doesn't justify the risk. The independent probabilities of unavoidable delays on each leg of journey add up, where in car there are alternate routes.
- Would consider taking train if it came with flight insurance.
- There is no clear signage at arrivals of where the UP line is, as signage favors limousines, then taxis, then pickup, etc.
- Any signage would need to include scheduling information as walking to train to find it's not running means never going back.
I supported the UP line in principle when they were talking about building it, but can see why their numbers aren't up yet.

A new transit line is usually pretty big news in any city, but like I said... everyone in Toronto that I asked about it didn't know about it either. So they've really blown it on awareness. Thankfully, that's actually a pretty easy thing to fix.
