Region of Waterloo International Airport - YKF

1. Regular bus service, say hourly? If Airways Transit won't do it then maybe a GO bus.
2. GO train? (The existing line runs about 1km from YYZ. Either add a spur line or a shuttle service. And of course we'd need hourly service.)

Surely these options are less expensive than expansion of YKF and probably quicker to implement, especially 1.

Direct trains or buses to YYZ would be helpful especially if they were less expensive than Airways Transit.  But they would be awkward if you have more than a carry on.  The only time I took a train from an airport was in Amsterdam and those trains were designed to accommodate luggage and people and that worked well.  It was also a lot cheaper than a taxi.
